The Mediapro Studio presents «Raza Brava»
The Mediapro Studio arrives at ATF 2025 presenting a slate that spans high-stakes international thrillers, intense social dramas, and character-driven sports documentaries. The offerings reflect a focus on productions rooted in local culture but designed for global resonance.
The company is placing significant emphasis on the Chilean production Raza Brava (4×52′), a drama directed by International Emmy winner Hernán Caffiero. The series is one of the first fictional works to directly portray a real Latin American football club, telling the story of Barti, a young man from humble origins who rises to become the leader of the Colo-Colo’s Garra Blanca fan club, where ambition leads him into a dangerous world of corruption and violence.
The Studio’s scripted fiction lineup expands across various international settings. Celeste (6×40′) is a drama thriller focused on a retiring tax inspector, Sara Santano, whose final assignment is to prove that superstar Celeste is paying taxes in Spain, forcing her to navigate a glamorous world full of secrets. The Icelandic-set thriller Reykjavik Fusion (6×52′) centers on Jónas, a talented chef falsely imprisoned, who jeopardizes his parole and his life by accepting illicit funds to open a restaurant in an attempt to regain his family’s trust. Another international co-production, Jakarta (6×45′), follows Joserra, a man haunted by his past in badminton, who dedicates himself to training a gifted young player named Mar, confronting both sports challenges and personal demons.
The drama slate also includes the contemporary thriller Quiet (8×45′), set during the March 2020 lockdown in Barcelona, where the empty streets become the backdrop for a chilling series of brutal murders targeting the homeless. On the lighter side, So far so good (8×30′) is a dramedy where successful comic artist Ariel struggles with family and social pressures, with a physical ailment sparking a humorous self-exploratory journey. For horror fans, the anthology series Tales from the void (6×32′) offers chilling episodic tales inspired by viral stories from r/NoSleep, exploring the darkest corners of the human psyche.
In documentary and factual programming, The Mediapro Studio is bringing multiple high-profile projects. The sports documentary series Real Madrid: how could I not love you? (6×40′) provides an inside look at the club during an unforgettable season where the team defies critics and asserts its European dominance. Another sports biopic, The Williams (84′), tells the story of two Ghanaian-descended brothers who become football stars, navigating issues of racism and identity while achieving triumphs from the World Cup to the Euro Cup. For true crime, The Christine Jessop Story (3×50′) delves into Canada’s notorious child murder case using exclusive interviews and previously unseen material.
