  • Production Notes
    A Film by John Madden Production Notes Synopsis Even the best secret agents carry a debt from a past mission. Rachel Singer must now face up to hers… Filmed on location in Tel Aviv, the U.K., and Budapest, the espionage thriller The Debt is directed by Academy Award nominee John Madden (Shakespeare in Love). The screenplay, by Matthew Vaughn & Jane Goldman and Peter Straughan, is adapted from the 2007 Israeli film Ha-Hov [The Debt]. At the 2011 Beaune International Thriller Film Festival, The Debt was honoured with the Special Police [Jury] Prize. The story begins in 1997, as shocking news reaches retired Mossad secret agents Rachel (played by Academy Award winner Helen Mirren) and Stephan (two-time Academy Award nominee Tom Wilkinson) about their former colleague David (Ciarán Hinds of the upcoming Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy). All three have been venerated for decades by Israel because of the secret mission that they embarked on for their country back in 1965-1966, when the trio (portrayed, respectively, by Jessica Chastain [The Tree of Life, The Help], Marton Csokas [The Lord of the Rings, Dream House], and Sam Worthington [Avatar, Clash of the Titans]) tracked down Nazi war criminal Dieter Vogel (Jesper Christensen of Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace), the feared Surgeon of Birkenau, in East Berlin. While Rachel found herself grappling with romantic feelings during the mission, the net around Vogel was tightened by using her as bait. At great risk, and at considerable personal cost, the team’s mission was accomplished – or was it? The suspense builds in and across two different time periods, with startling action and surprising revelations that compel Rachel to take matters into her own hands.

Keywords: hero, archetypes, hero’s journey, kick-ass film 1. INTRODUCTION A hero is someone who acts bravely out of concern for others even at their own personal risk. They are willing to sacrifice everything without getting a reward. This is the kind of hero that we need. To be a figure that important in this world we live in. To stand up and fights for the right things. It can be argued that the action or behavior ultimately stands as heroic or not in the absence of any social milieu (Howerth 1935; cited in Franco, Blau, & Zimbardo, 2011).

    Made Outside London programme titles register 2016 Publication Date: 20 September 2017 About this document Section 286 of the Communications Act 2003 requires that Channels 3 and 5 each produce a suitable proportion, range and value of programmes outside of the M25. Channel 4 faces a similar obligation under Section 288. On 3 April 2017, Ofcom became the first external regulator of the BBC. Under the Charter and Agreement, Ofcom must set an operating licence for the BBC’s UK public services containing regulatory conditions. We are currently consulting on the proposed quotas as set out in the draft operating licence published on 29 March 2017. See https://www.ofcom.org.uk/consultations-and- statements/ofcom-and-the-bbc for further details. As our new BBC responsibilities did not start until April 2017 and this report is based on 2016 data, the BBC quotas reported on herein were set by the BBC Trust. This document sets out the titles of programmes that the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 certified were ‘Made outside of London’ (MOL) productions broadcast during 2016.

  • Kew Media Distribution Delivers Formidable Line-Up of Fiction Programming for Miptv 2019
    KEW MEDIA DISTRIBUTION DELIVERS FORMIDABLE LINE-UP OF FICTION PROGRAMMING FOR MIPTV 2019 London, 27 March – Leading global distributor Kew Media Distribution, part of Kew Media Group, will showcase a raft of gripping new fiction programming at MIPTV. Kew Media Distribution’s fiction slate will headline with Clink, the first drama from the recent partnership deal with the UK’s Channel 5, from multi award-winning production company LA Productions, for Channel 5’s 5Star. The 10 x 60’ drama is set in the fictional BPS Bridewell women’s prison where the inmates are many things – drug users, robbers, killers – but most of them are survivors. Many of the inmates here come from dark, hopeless places, but the friendships these women form can ignite real flames of hope which warm the heart. These are their stories. The highly anticipated Line of Duty Season 5 (5 x 60’ and 1 x 90’ – also available: Seasons 1-4: 22 x 60’ and 1 x 90’) from the makers of Bodyguard, follows two years on from the events of series 4. Stephen Graham (Save Me, Boardwalk Empire) and Rochenda Sandall (Black Mirror) join the cast as John Corbett and Lisa McQueen – two pivotal figures in a deadly organised crime group. Known to have links with corrupt police officers and suspected to be under direct command of the shadowy figure known only as ‘H’, Corbett and McQueen become persons of interest to AC-12, following a deadly chain of events. Based on the award-winning, globally successful film of the same name, The Dead Lands: The Series (8 x 60’) offers a new chapter, set in a time before time, in which warrior Waka Nuku Rau must find honour in a land ravaged by the supernatural.
