, head writer-showrunner on Beta/RTL smash hit series “Sisi,” is prepping “Disgrace,” a fast-paced thriller mini-series set during Argentina’s 1978 Soccer World Cup.
The mini-series follows a German special forces operative, Hajo Heller, sent to Argentina to protect Germany’s national soccer team from terrorist attacks during the 1978 World Cup. “This is a simple, archaic story of a father trying to rescue his daughter that resonates with people around the world: a fast paced, action-packed political thriller with such emotionally engaging through-lines works everywhere,” he said.
The mini-series will be filmed in Spanish and German. “Similar to our German-Chilean drama series ‘Dignity,’ we will work with local co-production partners from Latin America. We are convinced that this is a unique, international project with great global potential,” Oppermann noted, adding that they are in talks with Argentine creatives for direction as well as story consultants from Latin America.
“Some of the advantages [of co-producing TV fiction with Spanish-language territories] are very obvious. Talent, both behind and in front of the camera, is obviously the most important element,” argued.
