Bavaria Fiction’s documentary unit, founded in March 2022, was spun off as a separate model known as Icon Docs. The unit produces films and series for cinema, TV and streamers.
Along with in-house and commissioned productions, national and global co-productions are expected to be increasingly produced sooner or later. Icon Docs is led by Emanuel Rotstein, who will continue to report to Marcus Ammon, managing director of content at Bavaria Fiction.
Ammon stated: “Lately, the demand for factual programming has increased across the world. Due to this fact, we have established Ion Docs as an independent record label in the German and international market, with our documentary team centered on the renowned management of Emanuel Rotstein.”
Rotstein said: “Icon Docs represents next-generation initiatives with a uniquely high output and data value. We need to transfer individuals, shake them up and build bridges between cultures. With a transparent treatment of current, political and investigative affairs, biographies and modern history, we create refined content that deserves the attention of a broad, global audience.”
Icon Docs’ current productions include the true crime documentary “Automobile Park Homicide – Who Killed Charlotte Böhringer?” for Sky and the biopic “Extremely Orthodox: Rabbi Akiva’s Journey to Freedom” for ZDF and 3sat.
Development initiatives include “Hitler in Hollywood” (working title), which examines the complex relationship between Hollywood and Nazi Germany in the 1930s, and “The Park – the Revolutionary Heart of New York” (working title), a documentary over Washington Square. Park reflecting its history “as a place of change, resistance and the search for identification – as well as a space in the struggle for freedom and equality”, which takes on a specific poignancy in light of the upcoming US presidential elections, in Bavaria Fiction declared.
