SevenOne International sells Showtime Original Series “The Borgias” to Switzerland
Bodo Braun, Sales Director German-speaking Countries and Turkey of SevenOne International, comments, “This is an exciting TV event produced in the U.S. with an A-list cast. We’re confident this fresh new series will fit in very well with 3+’s young profile.”
The Borgias
Sex. Power. Murder. Amen. “The Borgias” from the creative mind of Academy Award winner Neil Jordan portraits the sordid saga of one of the most remarkable and legendary families in history. Set in 15th century Italy at the height of the Renaissance, “The Borgias” chronicles the corrupt rise of patriarch Rodrigo Borgia (brilliantly portrayed by Academy Award winner Jeremy Irons) to the papacy, where he proceeds to commit every sin in the book to amass and retain power, influence and enormous wealth for himself and his family.
3+
The diversified programming of 3+ includes high-quality entertainment Swiss productions such as “Bauer, ledig, sucht”, “Bumann der Restauranttester”, “Wer wird Millionär?”, “Adieu Heimat” and “Jung, wild & sexy”, top U.S. series and various blockbuster movies. With local productions “Bauer, ledig, sucht” and “Bumann der Restauranttester,” 3+ has been market leader in the target group several times. In 2009, 3+ received the Swiss Economic Award as best Swiss Young Entrepreneurs in the service category.
