HBO Latin America and HBO Europe announce their first original co-production Destino Rusia 2018 (10×30’), a 10-part documentary series bringing intimate and personal stories from top players preparing for this year’s World Cup in Russia.
As excitement builds amongst fans around the world, Destino Rusia 2018 will present in-depth, close-up accounts of passion, friendship, solidarity and achievement in the world of football, as told by leading players from across Latin America and Europe and their most immediate entourage.
The 10 episodes will span 12 countries, giving fresh insight into the journeys of top athletes to the world sporting stage, and celebrating the most universal of sports with a uniquely personal approach.
“We are very excited about this unprecedented collaboration between HBO Latin America and HBO Europe. After producing Destino South Africa and Destino Brazil in 2010 and 2014, now for the first time we are coming together to produce a global original documentary series providing a unique, compelling, intimate look at soccer and the World Cup, an event that brings the whole world together”, said Roberto Ríos, HBO Latin America Corporate VP, Original Production.
“HBO Europe is thrilled to be collaborating for the first time with our colleagues from Latin America, who previously created two successful Destino series in the World Cups in South Africa and Brazil. This time, the project becomes even more universal, bringing all its color and emotion to many more countries where football is a source of unequaled passion, with the unique vision and perspective on storytelling HBO is known for,” commented Miguel Salvat, Commissioning Editor of Original Programming, HBO España.
Destino Rusia 2018 is executive produced by Luis F. Peraza, Roberto Ríos, Paul Drago and Gabriela Remirez for HBO Latin America and Miguel Salvat and Hanka Kastelikova for HBO Europe. The series is being produced by Eulogio Romero (Koncept). It premieres on HBO Latin America and HBO Europe this April.
