The first season ran seven episodes and became one of the most-watched shows on Israeli platform Hot when it debuted earlier this year. Federation International, the distribution arm of Federation Studios, launches global sales for Season 1 this week at Mipcom.
The show is the second co-production from Shari Redstone's Sipur Studios and The North Road Company, following their Netflix hit Bad Boy. Liad Shoham, Gal Zaid and Roni Yaddor created it. Endemol Shine Israel produced it, and Evgeny Ruman directed.
Sultan plays Dr. Dasi Nakash, a promising transplant surgeon who commits a desperate act to save a friend. That act pulls her into moral dilemmas, shadowy patient rescues and conflicts with the grim underworld of the medical establishment. Monica Levy, Federation International's co-head of international sales, called the series "a bold, high-stakes thriller" and said she can't wait to share it with buyers at Mipcom. Sipur CEO Emilio Schenker pointed to an "incredible launch in Israel."
The show hasn't even reached international buyers yet, and it already has a second season.
