Will be launched on July, 17th complete in Flow and on July, 18th on Telefe.

More than three decades after the AMIA bombing, Telefe and Flow present AMIA: The End of Truth, a powerful fiction series inspired by real events to create a contemporary action story where the lines between truth and manipulation blur. The production is an international production by Dori Media and Yair Dori, with a cast and crew from multiple countries, and was filmed with the help of local production company Cimarrón in Uruguay and Argentina.

The story follows Diego, a Mossad agent whose sister was killed in the attack on the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires. In his search for answers, he teams up with Gisela, a local journalist, and together they delve into a world of espionage, intelligence agencies, arms trafficking, and state secrets. A territory where justice and revenge become indistinguishable, and where certainties fade. The journey they embark on will ultimately lead them to reexamine their connection to their families and even their concept of identity. 

With a fast-paced narrative and high visual impact, the series combines archival footage with high-quality original production, creating a fully immersive experience. As the plot unfolds, viewers will be confronted with unresolved questions: What was true and what was covered up? What interests moved the pieces? Where does memory end and fiction begin? The series will inundate viewers with questions that no one has been able to answer in almost 30 years.

. The series was created by Givon Snir (also showrunner) and Shuky Gur, and directed by Uruguayan filmmaker Guillermo Rocamora, recognized for award-winning dramas such as Solo (Ibero-American First Film Award at the 2013 Miami Film Festival) and the short film Buen Viaje, selected at the Cannes and Bilbao film festivals.

Israeli actor Michael Aloni plays Diego, Malena Sánchez is the journalist Gisela, and the cast includes Alfonso Tort, César Bordón, and Jameel Khoury, among other talents from Israel, Argentina, and Uruguay.

AMIA: The End of Truth will be launched in Flow on July 17th Thursday complete and on Telefe on July 18th Friday. 

A series that challenges, moves, and shakes, about a wound that remains open.

Nadav Palti, Dori Media CEO commented: “About four years ago, during a routine conversation with Yair Dori, where we often discuss future ideas, the important, untold fiction story of the AMIA bombing came up. Until 9/11, it was the largest civilian terror attack in the Americas. We felt it was essential to tell this story. It’s a sensitive and profound topic that, sadly, remains just as relevant today. Unlike most productions, we started without a broadcaster. Our deep belief in the project and the importance of this story drove us to move full speed ahead. As with any major production, especially on such a topic, we faced many challenges along the way. But those only strengthened and sharpened us and made us more professional. I’m grateful to the investors who joined us along the way, to the showrunner, creators, director, the Cimarrón team, to the incredible actors and I sincerely thank Telefe and Flow for recognizing the potential”

Dori Media Group & Abot Hameiri’s original new game show “The Auction” is set to debut this weekend on América Televisión in Peru (local name – “La Subasta”), marking the first market to broadcast the new format, it was announced today by Dori Media CEO Nadav Palti.

“The Auction” pits two teams of five family members against each other, in a fun and suspenseful auction setting. Each team is given an equal budget and looks to acquire prizes with the highest value, all while trying to reach the final and win the show’s grand prize. 

“We are thrilled that our collaboration with Abot Hameiri and partners América Televisión, Kapow and Open Kimono on ‘The Auction’ is set to take flight this weekend in Peru in primetime, marking the first territory to broadcast this exciting new game show format,” says Dori Media’s Palti. “‘The Auction’ has all the elements of a classic game show in an auction setting and we can’t wait to share this first edition with buyers across the globe.”

The 8-episode series, which stars Michael Aloni and Malena Sanchez, was inspired by the 1990’s terror attacks on the Israeli Embassy and against the Argentinian Jewish community.

Series About Early Life of International Mind-Reading Sensation Master Mentalist, Lior Suchard, Heading into Production This Summer

Dori Media Group is set to take original new series “Young Suchard,” which follows the early life of international mind-reading sensation Lior Suchard, out to the global marketplace later this year, it was announced today by Dori Media CEO Nadav Palti.

Suchard is considered to be the world’s leading mentalist, known for his unique performances for A-list celebrities, global business tycoons, primetime TV specials, and shows for Fortune 500 companies across more than 90 countries. “Young Suchard” is the tale of how he rose to become an international phenomenon–the true, precise, and entirely made-up story —a rare glimpse behind the curtain of his secrets where viewers will get to learn some of the secrets behind the special abilities, and maybe even becoming a mentalist themselves. 

For the first time, young viewers will get a behind-the-scenes look at mentalism—a craft that, despite popular belief, doesn’t involve actually reading minds. Instead, it blends a deep understanding of body language, social behaviors, anatomy, mathematics, the design of custom-made devices, and much more.

The 20 episodes series will blur the lines between reality and imagination, offering a unique blend of comedy and drama with a nostalgic wink to the vibrant 90s in which he grew up. “Young Suchard” is produced and distributed globally by Dori Media and is expected to make its debut on Kan Kids in Israel later this year. 

“Lior Suchard has become a true global sensation with his mentalist abilities and ‘Young Suchard’ will tell the truly remarkable story of how he discovered his unique powers and learned how to utilize them,” said Dori Media’s Palti. “This series will clearly have universal appeal and offer a fun hour of television that the entire family can enjoy.”

Suchard added, “People around the world always ask me two things: ‘How do you do it?’ and ‘How did it all begin?’ So together with Dori Media, we created a series that’s real, authentic—and totally made up, but will definitely answer those questions “

Together with a group of underdog kids who become his closest friends, Suchard uncovers his unique abilities and learns how to use them for mentalist manipulation, problem-solving—and maybe even to find his first love. 

“Young Suchard”, produced by Dori Media, was created by Elad Chen, Lior Suchard, Michael Stern, Shlomit Arviv and directed by Aaron Geva and Mickey Triest.

Last month, Dori Media and Abot Hameiri, in collaboration with America Television, Kapow and Open Kimono, unveiled plans for original new game show “The Auction.” “The “Auction,” which will be produced locally by America Estudios, will make its global debut mid-year in Peru on América Television, that nation’s top-rated network. Dori Media will handle all worldwide sales of the series.

“The Auction” pits two teams of five family members against each other, in a fun and suspenseful auction setting. Each team is given an equal budget and looks to acquire prizes with the highest value, all while trying to reach the final and win the show’s grand prize.

Series Inspired by Dual Terror Attacks on Argentina’s Israeli & Jewish Community Debuts on Reshet 13 This Week

Star-Studded Premiere Event Attracts Leaders & Diplomats from Across Latin America

Dori Media Group’s action drama AMIA is set to launch this week in Israel after attracting diplomats and leaders from across the Latin world, including Argentina’s Ambassador in Israel, to its star-studded Tel Aviv premiere.

The 8-episode series, which stars Michael Aloni and Malena Sanchez, was inspired by the 1990’s terror attacks on the Israeli Embassy and against the Argentinian Jewish community. AMIA, which is produced by Dori Media and Yair Dori and distributed by Dori Media, will make its worldwide debut on Thursday, February 13 on Israel’s Reshet 13.

And this past Sunday, Dori Media and Reshet 13 kicked off the show’s launch with a premiere event in Israel that was attended by the show’s talent, producers and the Israeli ambassadors from Argentina, Peru, El Salvador, Paraguay, as well as the Chilean Consul. 

The event was also attended by representatives of the Argentine community in Israel, officials who served during the attacks, and survivors. Prior to the screening of the first episode, the Argentine Ambassador to Israel (Axel Shimon Wahnish) expressed gratitude for Israel’s ongoing dialogue about the attacks that left an indelible scar on all Argentinians. 

AMIA was inspired by true events and filmed in Uruguay and Argentina with a cast and crew combining Israeli and South American talent. AMIA is based on an original idea from Dori Media CEO Nadav Palti and Yair Dori, created by Givon Snir and Shuki Gur and directed by Guillermo Rocamora. 

“About four years ago, during a routine conversation with Yair Dori, where we often discuss future ideas, the important yet untold story of the AMIA bombing came up,” said Palti at AMIA’s premiere event. “Until 9/11, it was the largest civilian terror attack in the Americas. We agreed it was essential for us to tell this story. But unlike most productions, we began without a broadcaster. Our deep belief in the project and the importance of this story—which had not yet been addressed in a TV series—was so strong that we decided to move full speed ahead.”

Palti continued, “Like every major production, especially on such a sensitive topic, we faced many challenges along the way. But these challenges only strengthened us, sharpened us, and made us more professional, highlighting just how important it was for us to tell this story. Along the way, investors joined us, and I want to thank them from the bottom of my heart. And I want to thank Reshet 13 once again for recognizing the potential. 

Emiliano Calemzuk, CEO of Reshet 13 and an Argentine native, shared his personal connection to the events, having personally witnessed the attack on the Israeli Embassy in Argentina. He revealed that his grandfather had been on route to the AMIA building minutes before the bombing.

In 1992, a devastating explosion at the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires claimed 29 lives and two years later, the city was rocked again when another attack struck the Jewish Community Center AMIA (Asociación Mutual Israelita Argentina), killing 85 more people. The series follows those determined to expose the truth, as they repeatedly clash with powerful forces working to bury it forever.

AMIA, which was filmed in Uruguay and Argentina, follows a Mossad agent (Aloni) whose sister was killed in the attack on the Embassy in 1992 and teams up with a local Argentinian journalist (Sánchez) to find those responsible. Their investigation reveals a shadowy world where spies, arms dealers, terrorist organizations, and heads of state create a reality where black becomes white, lies become truth, and beneath every conspiracy lies another.

 Earlier this month, Dori Media announced it was bringing the unique new horror comedy series Soul Sucker out to the international TV marketplace. Soul Sucker, which is set to launch on HOT (Israel) later this year, is created, written and stars Bat Hen Sabag, who was behind the award-winning Israeli series Dumb (which was remade in Germany as Rampensau with other local adaptions expected to launch later this year). The series is co-created and directed by Daphna Levin, who created, directed and served as Executive Producer on Euphoria and co-writer on In Treatment. Aharon Keshales is the script editor of the series.

Dori Media will be hosting a premiere global screening of Soul Sucker (8 episodes) at MIP London on Tuesday, February 25, with Sabag, Levin and Keshales on-hand for a moderated Q&A and meet & greet.

Genre-Busting Series from Creator and Star of Hit Drama Dumb Now Available Globally

Dori Media Hosting Screening at MIP London Feb 25th

 

February 05, 2025 – Dori Media Group (DMG), the studio behind such hits as Losing Alice, Lalola, Rebelde, The New Black, Ciega a Citas and Dumb, is bringing the unique new horror comedy series Soul Sucker out to the international TV marketplace, it was announced today by Nadav Palti, CEO & President of Dori Media Group.

 

Soul Sucker, which is set to launch on HOT (Israel) later this year, is created, written and stars Bat Hen Sabag, who was behind the award-winning Israeli series Dumb (which was recently remade in Germany as Rampensau with other local adaptions expected to launch later this year). The series is co-created and directed by Daphna Levin, who created, directed and served as Executive Producer on Euphoria and co-writer on In Treatment.

 

Dori Media will be hosting a premiere global screening of Soul Sucker (8 episodes) at MIP London on Tuesday, February 25, with Sabag and Levin on-hand for a moderated Q&A and meet & greet.

 

Soul Sucker is a family drama, a horror comedy and detective mystery all-in-one 8-episode series that has a pinch of gypsy folklore. It is a modern fairytale about witches and curses among mothers and daughters and is inspired by Sabag’s life and follows three generations of an oppressive matriarchal family (grandmother, mother and daughter). Soul Sucker deals with the emotional scars passed down by mothers, all the while maintaining a sense of humor and a very quirky tone.

 

Soul Sucker is unlike any other series we’ve taken out to the international marketplace, it is a comedy, a detective mystery, a family drama and a horror series all wrapped together in a program that you simply cannot take your eyes off,” says Dori’s Palti. “Soul Sucker is created by and stars Bat Hen Sabag, whose unique vision made Dumb a breakout global hit and co-created by Daphna Levin, who created, directed and produced Euphoria. So, we’re very confident that this truly unique new series will be received in a similar fashion by audiences around the world, too.”

 

Earlier this year, Dori Media announced its hit unscripted format “Power Couple” has been sold and renewed in numerous global territories, including Brazil, Germany and India.

Power Couple, which was created by Abot Hameiri, continues to take the world by storm, with original versions of the unscripted relationship series now in more than 20 territories globally, with more than 60 seasons and over 900 episodes produced.

 

And recently at MIPCOM, Dori Media unveiled a bounty of new unscripted offerings, including dating shows Spy Date and Love at Third Sight, redefining romance by exploring love’s unexpected sparks in the later chapters of life, trivia-based game show Smart Face, talent competition Da Next, street game Intuition, reality competition Stand-Up Warrior and the shiny floor game show The Best of All.

New Seasons of Abot Hameiri-Created Series Coming in Brazil, Germany, India, Croatia & Many Other Territories in 2025

Dori Media Group (DMG), the studio behind such hits as Losing Alice, Lalola, Rebelde, The New Black, Ciega a Citas and Dumb, has sold and renewed its hit unscripted format Power Couple in numerous global territories in the new year, including Brazil, Germany and India, it was announced today by Nadav Palti, CEO & President of Dori Media Group.

Power Couple, which was created by Abot Hameiri, continues to take the world by storm, with original versions of the unscripted relationship series now in more than 20 territories globally, with more than 60 seasons and over 900 episodes produced. 

“We always believed Power Couple had all of the elements to be a successful global format, but we are truly thrilled with the reception that this series is now receiving across such a wide array of nations, both big and small,” says Dori’s Palti. “The format, which is available in both celebrity and non-celebrity editions, resonates with local viewers whether it features celebrities or not, and the thirst for more episodes of Power Couple has become nearly insatiable in many territories.”

Power Couple is set to debut its seventh season in Brazil on Record TV in primetime this May, where it will air seven days a week and be simulcast on a digital platform and also available 24-hours a day via live streaming. 

A second season is currently in development in India with Aarambh Entertainment and in Germany, a new version of the format that will be known locally as Das Sommerhaus der Normalos, will run on RTL+ during the first quarter of the year. That’s in addition to RTL’s successful nine seasons of the celebrity-version of Power Couple in Germany, where the series goes by the title, Das Sommerhaus der Stars.

In Hungary, the series is set to launch its ninth season for RTL this summer, a sixth season is coming in Bulgaria on NOVA TV and a fifth in Croatia on RTL, as well. Power Couple has also been renewed for a third season by POP TV in Slovenia, following its successful second season, where it garnered a 32% share of the market at 7 p.m. across 20 episodes.

Power Couple quickly became a breakout hit on Videoland in Holland last year, airing as a celebrity edition in its first season and new editions are expected in Sweden, Demark, Finland and Norway. In Romania, the second season of the series on Antena just aired across 24 episodes. 

Last year, Dori Media went to MIPCOM with a bounty of new unscripted offerings, including dating shows Spy Date and Love at Third Sight, redefining romance by exploring love’s unexpected sparks in the later chapters of life, trivia-based game show Smart Face, talent competition Da Next, street game Intuition, reality competition Stand-Up Warrior and the shiny floor game show The Best of All

Critically Acclaimed Series’ Sixth Season Returning to Globoplay

Psychological Drama Has Been Remade in Over 20 Territories

Dori Media Group’s critically acclaimed psychological drama In Treatment is set to start production on its sixth season for Brazil’s Globoplay, where it is produced locally by Moonshot and known as Sessão de Terapia, it was announced today by Nadav Palti, CEO & President of Dori Media Group.

Originally titled BeTipul, In Treatment is considered one of the most successful TV format exports in the world and the series has been remade in over 20 territories globally, including the U.S. with HBO Max, Brazil with Globoplay, TV5 in Canada and Japan with Nippon TV. The format was originally created by Sheleg Productions’ award-winning producer Hagai Levi, who is known for Scenes from a Marriage and The Affair

Since 2019, Globo/Globoplay has partnered with Moonshot in Brazil, marking the show’s premiere on Globoplay and GNT, the cable channel that has aired the series since its inception. And Sessão de Terapia has consistently been one of the most-watched series on both platforms.

“We are thrilled that Globoplay and Moonshot are bringing ‘In Treatment’ back to the Brazlian audience that has enjoyed this special series for many seasons now,” says Dori Media’s Palti. “This is a format that continues to resonate across the globe and we’re excited that others are looking to launch and produce further seasons in the new year, as well.”

“The challenge of being innovative and creating complex, passionate characters within the delicate field of therapy and a globally successful franchise is something we embrace with joy and reflects our artistic mission,” says Roberto d’Avila, Moonshot CEO.

No other country has produced more seasons of In Treatment than Brazil, which is set to begin production on its sixth season in late 2025. The Brazilian series is directed by Selton Mello (I’m Still Here), who has also starred as ‘Caio’ since the 4th season, produced and adapted by Moonshot’s d’Avila and original scripts by Jacqueline Vargas. Since its 3rd season, Moonshot has developed original characters and stories, revitalizing the franchise with a new therapist in its fourth season. 

Sessão de Terapia is known for its unique and compelling storytelling, offering endless possibilities for introducing new characters and narratives. A prime example of its creative flexibility came in the fourth season, which featured Morena Baccarin (HomelandDeadpool) in her first-ever Portuguese performance, playing a pivotal role as Caio’s supervisor.
