Aiming to expand its reach in the factual content landscape, Zdf Enterprises has fully acquired Off the Fence, a leading Dutch production and distribution company dedicated to nonfiction programming.
Off the Fence Productions has created over 500 hours of TV content across a wide range of genres, including science, history, human stories and natural history. Boasting a catalogue of more than 6,500 hours’ worth of content, the company has delivered programming to global broadcasters, including History Channel, MTV, the BBC, Channel 4, MSNBC, PBS, National Geographic Channel, Discovery, The Weather Channel and Zdf.
Some of its recent titles include the documentaries “Untamed Romania” and “Besa: The Promise,” about the men and women of Albania who faced down the Nazis and saved the lives of nearly 2,000 Jews.
Under the deal, Off the Fence’s CEO and founder Ellen Windemuth will remain in the post.
“We are very excited to join such a clever and dynamic group.
