PASSION DISTRIBUTION GAINS NEW DEPTH!
September 5, 2011 - Passion Distribution is pleased to announce that is has acquired the distribution rights to SUBMARINE PATROL, a 3x 60’ title from Firelight Productions, which will premiere on 5th September on Channel 5 at 8pm. It will also be broadcast on the National Geographic Channel, UK. Unlike other theatres of war, the world of the submarine – infamously nicknamed ‘the hidden hunter’, has long remained shrouded in mystery. It’s a vessel more complicated than a space shuttle, and the water they hide in is less explored than space. The covert missions of a submarine are kept top secret and notoriously guarded by the MOD and Royal Navy... until now. Sales for Submarine Patrol have already been positive with it being presold into a host of territories including Africa, Europe and the Middle East. It has also been sold into Australia and New Zealand to The Discovery Channel and to Australian digital channel, 7Mate. Sally Miles, CEO, Passion Distribution said, “Submarine Patrol is a fascinating ob doc looking at a world very rarely seen or understood by the average person. It is extremely exciting to be bringing shows to MIPCOM that can entertain and educate people about a world that was previously inaccessible to them. It is programming of this nature that Passion strives to continue acquiring and distributing.”
