Following SBS International’s sale of the format rights of Australian series Go Back to Where You Came From, German broadcaster ZDF has announced completion of their adaptation Auf der Flucht – Das Experiment (Fleeing – The Experiment).
Fleeing – The Experiment is the most recent adaption of the award-winning Australian unscripted format, acquired by Doclights, one of the leading documentary producers in Germany, in 2012. It follows TV2 Denmarks re-version titled Send Dem Hjem (Send Them Home) which premiered in February this year.
The new series sees six Germans, all with firm views on the immigration debate, set out on a unique journey which fundamentally changes their views on asylum and refugee issues.
