PRESS RELEASE
HOMELAND SERIES CREATORS HOWARD GORDON
AND GIDEON RAFF TO KEYNOTE AT MIPTV
KESHET INTERNATIONAL TO DETAIL SUCCESSFUL ADAPTATION
OF HATUFIM-PRISONERS OF WAR ORIGINAL SERIES
Paris, Tuesday 26 February 2013 MIPTV announces today that Howard Gordon and Gideon Raff, executive producers of multi-award-winning drama Homeland, will give a MIPTV Media Mastermind Keynote on Monday 8 April, presented in partnership with Keshet International.
Organised by Reed MIDEM, MIPTV 2013 will take place in Cannes, 8-11 April.
Now in its second season on Showtime in the US, the Fox 21 production Homeland won six Primetime Emmy awards, including the 2012 Outstanding Drama Series, and four Golden Globe awards, including the 2013 Best Television Drama Series. Homeland is based on Keshet Broadcastings critically-acclaimed Israeli series Hatufim-Prisoners of War.
Executive Producer of Homeland, Howard Gordon first gained international attention for his award-winning work as executive producer of Foxs groundbreaking series The X-Files. From 2001 to 2010, Gordon was the showrunner and executive producer of the worldwide hit series 24.
Before executive producing Homeland, Gideon Raff created, wrote and directed Hatufim-Prisoners of War, the highest-rated drama series in Israel and winner of nine Israeli Academy Awards for Television, including Best Directing and Best Drama Series. For his writing on Homeland, Raff received an Emmy award, a WGA award, an Edgar Allen Poe award, as well as a Peabody award.
In front of the MIPTV audience, Gordon and Raff will reveal the creative process behind the critically-acclaimed and ratings winning dramas, from conception to screen. They will discuss how these compelling dramas have become hits around the world and what considerations were made in adapting an Israeli story for American TV, creating a hit twice-over. Gordon and Raff will be accompanied by Keshets VP of Programming, Ran Tellem, who oversaw one of TVs most successful scripted adaptations from day one.
