Italian Disney+ drama The Good Moms has gained the inaugural Berlinale Sequence award for greatest TV drama on the 2023 Berlin Worldwide Movie Competition. The U.Ok.-Italy co-production tells the true story of three girls contained in the infamous Calabrian ‘Ndrangheta crime syndicate who labored with a feminine prosecutor to deliver down its empire.
Produced by Home Productions within the U.Ok. and Italy’s Wildside, a Fremantle firm, The Good Moms is predicated on the eponymous novel by Alex Perry. Stephen Butchard tailored the ebook, and Julian Jarrold (Kinky Boots, Brideshead Revisited) and Elisa Amoroso (Constancy) directed.
The primary two episodes of the six-part collection screened on the Berlinale as a part of the pageant’s sidebar for high-end TV drama.
The primary ever Berlinale Sequence Award Jury trio of former Sure Studios boss Danna Stern, Moonlight and The Eddy star André Holland and Danish screenwriter Mette Heeno, mentioned Good Moms “captured us with its multi-layered characters which were handled with care and allowed to evolve earlier than our very eyes. The collection creators have been meticulous in recreating an genuine and detailed world, introduced by a stellar forged, with efficiency that made our hearts skip a beat.”
The jury gave a particular point out to Viaplay collection Arkitekten (The Architect), a darkish satire a couple of near-future Copenhagen, from screenwriting duo Nora Landsrød and Kristian Kilde and director Kerren Lumer-Klabbers.
