CURRENT Coproductions: CITY FOLK
Short Description
The project, yet running for 5 years, is already existing in
the framework of the EBU and achieves very high audience rates.
„City Folk“ is a new approach to the multicultural life in big
European cities. The reports are describing people living in cities
showing their habits and living conditions. Every program consists
of three portraits. The three characters in City Folk are a reflection
of the Urban Society - One of them is always a migrant, one of them
is (also) a woman. One is old and one is young -. All stories are
timeless.
The production schedule is running in a very strict way following
a detailed co-production agreement. For example, the programmes
should be overvoiced or subtitled, there is a yearly participation
fee of DM 2500 for each member, all these details are available
in a very precise production sheet.
