Primeworks Studios Urban Travelogue Acquired by Indonesias Largest Media Group, Media Nusantara Citra (MNC)

PETALING JAYA, 9th February 2015 - Both seasons of Without Boundaries, a Primeworks Studios production, have been acquired by MNC Channels, a subsidiary of Indonesian media giant Media Nusantara Citra (MNC). MNC Channels has acquired the non-exclusive rights to air all 20 episodes of the Without Boundaries series across its pay-tv, video on demand (VOD) and over-the-top (OTT) platforms until 2016.

The travelogue series began its broadcast on MNC Food and Travel from 7th February 2015. This marks the first of Primeworks Studios' content that has been acquired by the MNC Channels. Produced in 2011, the Without Boundaries series is a part of the Modern Urban Asia section of the production house's 2014/2015 content catalogue. The catalogue was launched at MIPCOM last year.

Hosted by celebrity traveller Henry Golding, the adrenaline-fueled travelogue series takes a walk on the wild side and explores all that Mother Nature has to offer in each season. Without Boundaries: Islands and Beaches sets sail to Malaysia's most beautiful seaside locations to take in the breath-taking scenery and unique activities available. In Without Boundaries: The Great Outdoors, Henry breaks away from the concrete jungle and hops from one adventure to another, from conquering Mount Tahan, to picking up survival skills from aboriginals, to volunteering at the Orang Utan & Sun Bears Conservatory.

"Primeworks Studios' efforts have been amplified in these recent years to produce Asian stories with an international appeal, and we are honoured to have our production picked up by the esteemed MNC. This marks a significant milestone for us, and spurs us to further penetrate the Indonesian market this year," said Ahmad Izham Omar, Chief Executive Officer of Primeworks Studios.
