MIP Cancun is recognized as a market that increases in importance with each occasion due to its efficient organization, allowing productive meetings among attendees, mostly from the Latin American region.

 

SOMOS Distribution offer is led by novelties such as the Turkish drama "That Girl," produced by Kanal D (79 episodes). It is the story of Zeynep, who dreams of leaving her miserable life behind and becoming a social media phenomenon. She acts as a mother to her disadvantaged father. Zeynep works as a cleaner in the house of Ozan, whom she falls in love with, but he has a lover. This is the beginning of an interesting dramatic mix, where various realities combine. Another highlighted product is the Greek drama "Sasmos" (148 episodes), produced by J.K. Productions S.A/ Alpha TV. In this drama, two conflicting families start an endless cycle of blood and revenge, of which two young lovers are victims.

 

SOMOS Distribution will also present successful series from the sister company SOMOS Productions. These include the family youth series "Lucy es el 7" and "Gina Yei" (from Somos Productions and Piñolywood). In "Lucy es el 7", with two seasons and 20 episodes, the love story of Lucy and Anthony is presented. Anthony has always wanted to be a famous singer and form the first Latin "K-Pop" group and must form a band with 7 boys. He has found 5 of them but needs one more singer. Lucy will become a handsome boy and be the number 7 in Anthony's group to get closer to him and win his love. In "Gina Yei" (24 episodes), Gina has won a scholarship at the prestigious Caribbean Music Institute (IMC) located on the island of Puerto Encantado, considered the best place in the world to study Latin music and the cradle of successful reggaeton. Her ultimate dream is to compose songs for great artists, and upon arriving at the Institute, things will be immensely more complex than she expected. These series are joined by the renowned biopic "Hasta que te Conocí," which narrates the life of Juan Gabriel (14 episodes), and the successful musical drama series "Súbete a Mi Moto" (15 episodes), with the story of the formation and success of the band Menudo.
