Attendance at the Iberseries & Platino Industria in Madrid, 27. - 30.09.2022

The international event Iberseries & Platino Industria was held in Madrid from September 27-30, 2022. This is the largest event for producers, filmmakers and experts in the Ibero-American region. It aimed to promote feature films and fictional series related to Spain, Portugal or Latin America, and to encourage talent in the audiovisual sector. GUMELAB was invited by the organizers to present the first research results at Iberseries & Platino Industria and to get in touch with series producers.

At the panel  „Las historias que nos cuentan. Cine e Historia” (The stories they tell us. Film and history) we talked with Chilean producer Maria Elena Wood (Noticias de un Secuestro, Dignity, Mary & Mike) and Spanish screenwriter Alberto Macías (Cuéntame cómo pasó) about the role of fiction. What challenges and opportunities arise when Ibero-American history is told in television series?
