Maltese TV drama enthusiasts have even more exciting content to look forward to as GO launches its next, exclusive production, Luna.
Seeded in Sicily in the early 1990s, the story depicts the life and love of a Sicilian teenage beauty born in a family where customs and tradition, not only influence life, but mould it.
Luna will be aired this October, exclusively on GO TV's platform Tokis.
"We are very excited to bring more exclusive TV content to our customers. Luna is the second executive production we have participated in and comes on the back of Chalet, which was exceptionally well received by the public last December," said Alison Mercieca, senior manager Marketing at GO plc.
"Local TV enthusiasts are hungry for more Maltese productions and we are proud to be able to deliver, as we remain committed to our investment of over €1m over the next three years, to support the local industry so that our customers' TV experience gets better every day," Mercieca added.
"We are also delighted with our active role in Malta's TV industry where we are not only injecting financial support to local production companies but also leading to the creation of further opportunities to showcase local talent, both locally and internationally," she added.
"Collaborating with a company like GO on such a production means that we have more resources to overcome the many challenges we face as production companies," explained Michael Vella Haber who together with Evelyn Saliba La Rosa co-scripted Luna.
They describe the storyline as "a roller coaster of emotions and a journey full of love, obedience, deceit and patience where the protagonists have to manoeuvre in silence in an attempt to survive and protect loved ones. After 30 years of this, one phone call changes everything. A call that leads all involved to face the past, embrace the present and search for the missing".
The period drama Chalet, announced in December of last year, was the first announced production in collaboration with GO. This was followed by the announcement of popular TV series Iċ-Ċaqqufa which will return exclusively to GO Originals this coming December.
In June, GO launched l-iSpettur Leonard, a spin-off from the popular series Simpatiċi which will be aired on GO's Tokis platform followed by the announcement in July of the Women of George Cross Island series, which will also start airing on GO Originals in October.
