In 2016, on the MIPCOM film market, a deal was signed to acquire the rights to distribute the Insiders project - a cycle about urban research of the co-production of FILM.UA Group and the Insiders project team. The international version of the cycle will be called “Soviet Megamonsters”.

Looking Glass International, one of the leading European distributors of content about an active lifestyle and sport, has the rights to distribute the films of the project to a number of territories. At the moment, the Insiders project films are broadcast in France on the air of Planet +, which belongs to the famous French media company "Group Canal +". Every Wednesday, the French people exclusively look at the most exciting industrial facilities of the former USSR, both outside and inside. The films of the project open the audience the secrets of hard-to-reach locations - from bomb shelters of the times of Cold War to underground tunnels of the Kiev Metro.

The first season of the Insiders project is devoted to exploration of abandoned tunnels, underground rivers, bridges, roofs of houses and industrial facilities.  A special issue about the Chernobyl exclusion zone with unprecedentedly exclusive frames was crafted out of two episodes.

As Katerina Vyshnevska, producer of the Insiders project and director of development and co-production of FILM.UA Group commented:  "Even if you are not a fan of an active lifestyle, extreme sports and adrenaline, you just have to watch one of the films of the cycle to "get hooked”.  So, I think, international viewers will also appreciate our project ".

China also bought the rights to distribute the Insiders project. Details will be later.
