Following a successful week in London in February, where we screened two of the London TV Screenings' buzziest titles - Backmann & Hoderoff's thriller about a proxy war in Europe, Conflict (6x60'), which got selected for Hot Picks in Variety, Deadline, C21, Broadcast, and TBI Vision; and Ritual Art's premium documentary series EPed and narrated by Orlando Bloom, Earthbound (6x60') - we'll be officially launching our Spring 2024 slates in Cannes.
If you plan on attending MIPTV, reach out to your sales rep (below) to set up a meeting in person to discuss our new scripted and unscripted slates, as well as our diverse catalogue of entertaining and flexible formats.

ACTIVITY IN CANNES
MIP DRAMA showcase: Palo Alto and valhalla project
- Date: Sunday 7 April, 2.30pm - 5pm
- Location: Hi5 Studio
Keshet International is representing two of the 10 dramas selected for this year’s MIP Drama Showcase on Sunday 7 April: Artza Productions’ crime drama Palo Alto (7x60’, format and tape) and Snapper Films sci-fi thriller Valhalla Project (6x60’, format and tape).
In Palo Alto for Keshet 12, police detective Iris senses foul play when an additional corpse appears in the lab of a medical school in the port of Haifa, igniting a bloody struggle between local Jewish and Arab mobsters operating there.
While in Valhalla Project for Elisa Viihde, a climate scientist is lured into a quest to find a path to a parallel universe researched by her father who disappeared in Lapland over 30 years ago. Both dramas are still in post-production ahead of their official launch-to-market planned for later this year.
