Onza Distribution has acquired the international distribution rights for ‘Mamen Mayo: At Her Will’ (8×30’), making it available outside of SkyShowtime’s more than 20 European markets. The SkyShowtime Original, which premiered in Spain on November 18, is a new Spanish series that blends comedy with family drama. It follows the protagonist, Mamen Mayo (Sílvia Abril), an exceptionally intelligent inheritance mediator. She and her team specialize in resolving conflicts that arise in families who, for better or worse, inherit a fortune. With Mamen Mayo, Onza Distribution strengthens its catalog with a title that has already generated significant buzz in the market.
“After such an enthusiastic reception from both critics and audiences at its premiere, we are excited to share the humanity, humor, and emotion of Mamen Mayo with even more viewers worldwide,” say Adrián Guerra and Núria Valls, producers at Nostromo Pictures.
“We’re confident that ‘Mamen Mayo: At Her Will’ has all the elements to resonate with an international audience: humor, lovable yet hilarious characters, and situations that transcend cultures. Who hasn’t heard stories of families who, when it comes time to divide an inheritance, bring out the worst in each other? Now we’ll be able to see these situations with a humorous twist, always maintaining an optimistic and fresh tone,” comments Carlos Garde, Managing Director of Onza.
The series is produced by Nostromo Pictures in association with SkyShowtime and was created by Eduard Sola, who also serves as showrunner alongside Miguel Ángel Faura. The cast is led by Sílvia Abril (‘Alimañas’) and Pablo Capuz (‘Merlí. Sapere Aude’), along with Mona Martínez (‘La novia gitana’) and Clara Sans (‘Cardo’).
Onza Distribution will officially present ‘Mamen Mayo: At Her Will’ at upcoming 2025 markets, with confirmed meetings at Content Americas and NATPE Global.
