Always armed with major productions and recent premieres, Kanal D International made its way to Los Angeles for a new edition of LA Screenings Independents, to present hits like the successful Secret of Pearls, which achieved notable ratings with its two seasons, along with The Family Burden, Farewell Letter, Price of Passion, and Three Sisters to the international market.
“We have the primetime shows, the big premieres,” Duda Perman, Kanal D International’s Sales Manager for Latin Amerca, began a conversation with ttvnews at the event. “For example, Secret of Pearls just wrapped its second season a couple of weeks ago. And after the summer break, it will come back with the third one,” the executive revealed.
“There’s also The Family Burden, which was finalized in December 2024,” she added. “And now, one of our productions considered a premiere in Latin America, Farewell Letter, will make its debut in the second half of the year on TVN in Panama.”
“These are the premieres I’m very focused on presenting in Latin America,” explained the Sales Manager.
In addition to its new releases, Kanal D International continues to offer its catalog of classic titles, which are in high demand on Latin American screens to fill other non-traditional time slots.
“As Kanal D’s catalog is quite extensive, we have a very strong library with a sales history,” the executive emphasized. “There are clients looking for productions for alternative time slots, the classic ones. We’re currently signing a contract with Caracol, which is a 300-episode telenovela that they’ll air in the afternoon; an older production with a classic story, a classic drama that I’m sure will work very well.”
