Dori Media Presents at Mipcom 2013:

 

“Enigma” is a new daily drama which centres on the trials and tribulations of a comic strip artist, Adam Hexter, whose creative work is vital for his family business. Whilst going through a creative block, the family business suffers. When the enigmatic Sophie enters his life, Adam finally starts creating again, but his love for Sophie threatens to cause a mysterious figure from their past to reemerge. Sophie, however, is a figment of Adam’s imagination, but it is this loss of sanity that is enabling the family business to flourish once again. Upon discovering that Sophie is in fact a hallucination, Adam is heartbroken, but he still suspects that Sophie somewhere, somehow, actually does exist. He eventually realises that the origin of his hallucinations is in fact a real girl, his childhood sweetheart, part of a dark secret his family has been hiding from him. He sets out to reunite with his long lost love and show the world that love can overcome even the boundaries between reality and fantasy.

 

 “The Village” is a prime time reality format of 20 episodes in which five families are taken from their comfortable, modern lives and brought to an uninhabited area in order to build a new settlement and a new community along with other families that are totally different from them.

They will have to take care of the farm animals themselves and cook their own food using very limited resources. Each day the families will undergo a grueling challenge in order to receive an advantage: family versus family so they can win immunity from expulsion or all the families competing together so they can win something for the whole village. The family that wins the most votes from the other contestants and the viewers at home will be declared the winner and win the big prize.

In order to win the prize, a player must beat two players in two separate duels. The winner can then choose to leave with their earnings or double the amount by breaking their own record.

 

“The Invisible Man” is a new game show where six experts from a range of fields have to identify each episode’s celebrity guest without being able to see or communicate with them.

Will the celebrities have enough courage to hear the truth?

In this journey the family will have to detach themselves from day to day life and face the sore spots with their family in a way they never done before.  Every day they will face one challenge which is directly connected to the family issues, while simultaneously trying to leave together and take decisions as a family – who will cook, drive, navigate, when to sleep etc.

A family therapist will join them on the journey and be there for them at the most crucial moments.
