Fred Burcksen, Executive Vice President and COO at ZDF Enterprises, “Receiving not one but two awards at the world’s most important international television festival demonstrates the high standard and innovative quality of the programme catalogue at ZDFE drama. We are particularly proud of the fact that we have earned this honour in a highly competitive, international environment.” In the ground-breaking interactive TV and online thriller ‘Dina Foxx - Deadly Contact’, Dina attempts to halt an epidemic. In doing so, she enters into a ruthless battle between the food industry and political activists. Viewers were also able to immerse themselves in the thriller’s online world via the website dinafoxx.zdf.de alongside the TV experience. Three innovative online threads were combined there: series, game and 360° video investigation. The entire product was also available as an app. The already multi-award-winning ZDF TV movie ‘The Witness House’ (Gold World Medal at the New York Festivals and others) tells the moving story, based on real events, of the ‘Zeugenhäuser’ (witness houses), in which victims and perpetrators lived under one roof during the Nuremberg Trials in 1945/1946. This ensemble drama with a top-class cast features the talents of Iris Berben and Matthias Brandt, among others. |
