FILM.UA Group has published on its own Amazon page a series of urban exploration documentary films Insiders Project, as well as a number of projects popular with Ukrainian viewers, such as military drama Kasym, television series She's The One, 40+ or the Geometry of Love and To See the Rainbow... by director Oksana Bayrak, medical drama The Waiting List, melodramas The Favorite Teacher, A House on a Cold Spring, Light’o’Love, and six documentaries from the History of Criminalistics cycle. The projects have passed all the necessary procedures and have been fully approved for screening in the United States and the United Kingdom.
Thus, we are proud to announce a new era of collaboration between FILM.UA Group and the major content delivery service Amazon. From now on, the Group’s content will appear regularly on the VOD platform, and all the works required to prepare the projects for screening with an international audience, including language adaptation, subtitling, legal support, etc., will be carried out by FILM.UA Group in house.
“Our collaboration with Amazon is picking up steam, and many professionals from our Group of Companies are involved in it. “Tak Treba Production” is working on translation and subtitling of the content, but we also create Amazon-specific graphic materials for our projects in-house, our video archive adapts content to Amazon standards, while our legal and distribution support allow us to enter the US and UK VOD markets. I’m happy that all of the work on this project takes place at 22 Zakrevskoho St. in Kyiv, that is, in-house, and this is an important first step, but we don’t plan to stop there.” - says Nariman Huseynov, Operations Director of the Department of Broadcasting and Digital Resources of FILM.UA Group.
“We strive to fill our Amazon page with the necessary amount of content, which will allow us to create FILM.UA Group’s own channel in the long run. Now, all of the departments of our Group are learning all the intricacies of preparing and publishing content — this is certainly new experience for us, and it is yet another step in monetizing the content from our vast library” — states Tatyana Shershneva, TV and Digital Rights Sales Manager at FILM.UA Group.
