Cannes – Austrian distributor ORF-Enterprise and Discovery Channel have wrapped their first-ever cooperation for CEE/ MENA territories at MIPCOM. 

The documentary Sarajevo – The Assasination tells the story on the eve of World War I with breathtaking footage never seen before. 

Nesta Owens, Director of Programmes at Discovery Networks, Central & Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa: 

“The murder of Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo is accepted by many historians as the immediate cause of World War I. Our viewers will be fascinated by this story and there will be a great deal of interest around the centenary of World War I making this a great addition to our schedules for 2014.”
