CNN International has acquired 25 documentaries from the London-based independent distributor Journeyman Pictures. The half-hour documentaries will air as part of a new programme “World’s Untold Stories”, starting on February 16.
The freshly acquired films include ”The Very Thin Blue Line,” focusing on an Iraqi police training camp in Jordan, as well as “Road to Terrorism,” examining Jihadist networks in the Philippines. Founded by independent producer Mark Stucke, Journeyman Pictures markets a range of film types, including those made by major independent production companies. After having built up one of the largest actuality archives, Journeyman’s films are broadcast to an estimated 10 million people around the world.
