Boutique world sales outfit The Yellow Affair has boarded the Portuguese crime thriller “Irreversible,” produced by prestige outfit Caracol Studios for pubcaster Rtp.
The upcoming six-part TV show was showcased among 10 exclusive titles at this week’s MipDrama at MipTV in Cannes.
Created and helmed by the multi-awarded Bruno Gascon, the thought-provoking series tackles pressing issues such as mental health, illegal adoptions, bullying, homophobia and motherhood. In the title roles are Margarida Vila-Nova, Rafael Morais, and Laura Dutra.
We follow the tormented psychologist Júlia Mendes and inspector Pedro Sousa as they team up to solve a brutal homicide involving a young girl in a coastal town. As they unravel the crime, they battle their own personal demons and strive to keep their lives intact.
In a town where everyone hides something and is willing to do anything to protect their loved ones, the quest for truth may be a costly exercise for Júlia.

The latest episode of The Mandalorian landed on Disney Plus this Friday and it features a hilarious goof of “Game of Thrones coffee cup” proportions.
There are lots of virtual watercooler moments included in “Chapter 12: The Siege,” such as the mention of an element of Star Wars lore long thought ignored and a surprising change of behavior for Mando, but it’s this unfortunate mistake that’s getting most of the attention.
The episode sees the return of Cara Dune and Greef Karga as Din Djarin travels to Nevarro and helps them take out an Imperial base. At one point, the trio storm the place and one shot contains a big blunder that you might not be able to spot on first glance, but when you do notice it, you’ll never be able to stop seeing it.

In a sign of its perceived attractiveness for audiences in its native Portugal, major Portuguese distributor Nos Audiovisuais and public broadcaster Rtp have acquired rights to Portuguese director Bruno Gascon’s sophomore feature “Shadow.”
A title worth keeping an eye on at this year’s Locarno Match Me! networking and co-production event, “Shadow” marks Gascon’s follow up to debut feature “Carga.”
A human-trafficking drama-thriller, “Carga” was sold to more than 20 countries by Paris-based Wide and finished in the top five most popular Portuguese films in that country last year by number of admissions, proving a breakout hit for the director and the film’s upstart production company Caracol Protagonista.
“More than just being happy with the successes we had with ‘Carga,’ as a female producer I was so proud that was about female empowerment and raising awareness,” Caracol Protaganista producer Joana Domingues recalled in a conversation with Variety from Locarno.

Breaking Glass Pictures has acquired North American rights to Bruno Gascon’s high-concept feature debut “Carga,” a human trafficking thriller with Polish star Michalina Olszanska, Victor Norte and Sara Sampiao.
Shot in English, Russian and Portuguese, “Carga” is being represented in international markets by Paris-based company Wide Management.
Olszanska headlines the film as a woman searching for a better life who gets caught in a dangerous web of human trafficking after crossing paths with a truck driver. “(“Carga”) paints the situation of vulnerable yet fiercely strong women, who are compelled into service for commercial sex through force, fraud and coercion,” said Wide Management’s head of sales Danya Hannah who negotiated the deal with Breaking Glass CEO Rich Wolff.
Richard Ross, co-president of Breaking Glass, said the film was “intense, harrowing and genuinely suspenseful.”
