Armoza Formats announced that Italian television and film production company Palomar has signed on for the local rights of Back to Life, which was created for Israel’s Channel 10 in partnership with Armoza Formats.
Most recently it was announced that the new emotional docu-reality has been taken in Poland by production company Rochstar and in Germany by public broadcaster WDR. In addition, the show is soon to air on Israel’s Channel 10.
Back to Life (60’) is the inspiring docu-reality that follows the unique stories of patients and their families in a race against time while they wait for a lifesaving organ donation. In each thematic episode, we will get an intimate look at the struggle for survival of those that head the waiting list and simultaneously discover the story of their donor. From the uncertainty to the long-awaited call and a new chance at life, this format not only portrays the experience of the recipients but also the courageous act of giving – either by a living donor or that of a grieving family. While the clock ticks and each patient hopes for the moment that could save their lives, we’ll be exposed to the psychological, moral and emotional issues that affect everyone involved on the journey between life and death.
Marco Cingoli, Head of the Entertainment Division of Palomar, “From the very first moment we watched the trailer we felt that ‘Back to Life’ is a touching, moving and inspiring TV experience. This is why Palomar is proud to have the opportunity to work on such an emotional and meaningful program which will surely raise awareness and impact life, and most importantly, the saving of life.”
Avi Armoza, CEO of Armoza Formats, “With such an important format as ‘Back to Life’, it is important to highlight what makes it unique: the powerful opportunity it presents to change lives. We are looking forward to working with Palomar to bring this format to Italy.”
