Argentina's Daniel Burman's international spy thriller 'Witness 36' has been awarded the prestigious Series Mania Award at Co-Pro Series, the Berlinale Series Market's annual project pitching event. The award includes an invitation for the production team to present again at the Series Mania Forum's Co-Pro Pitching Sessions in Lille next month. 'Witness 36' is the sixteenth project presented out of competition in partnership with the Berlinale Co-Production Market.
Daniel Burman, a prominent filmmaker from Latin America, gained international recognition with a double Berlin Silver Bear win in 2004 for his fourth feature 'Lost Embrace.' Despite his success in cinema, Burman has ventured into premium drama series creation without abandoning his film career. In 2017, he announced that Mediapro had acquired a stake in his TV company Oficina Burman, with 'Yosi, the Regretful Spy' standing out at the 2022 Berlinale Series.
