% WILL BE the FIRST NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES 00% MADE IN BRAZIL

S o Paulo, August 5th 2015 Netflix, Inc. (Nasdaq: NFLX), the world's leading Internet television network, has announced today its first Brazilian Netflix original series, 3% , which will start filming in early 2016 and will debut exclusively on Netflix later in the year.

3% is a dramatic thriller that brings viewers into a world divided into progress and devastation. The once-in-a-lifetime chance to pass to the better side' is through a cruel - and not always fair - process where only 3% of the candidates succeed. Ultimately, the series questions the dynamics of society that imposes constant selection processes we all have to go through, whether we like it or not , says Cesar Charlone.

Netflix willingness to invest in Brazilian content, local talent and creative storytelling is key for our growth as a industry , says Tiago Mello, the Executive Producer of the show. The story was originally created a few years ago and now I am thrilled that it will turn into a completely new original Netflix series .
