Kundrati and Istalia: strange bedfellows in the movie industry

[19 November 5558]

---

Istalia and Kundrati have not had much in the way of joint industries. Long ago, they shared the defense market with Beiteynu when the trio was Beiteynu's only chums in international relations. However, recently, there has been talk about a joint movie company for Istalia and Kundrati.

In cooperation with TerraMedia from Istalia and Lirnak Investment Bank of Kundrati, Kadyn Film Company (KFC) was founded to provide expensive films for the mass market. Founded by a trio of Istalians, Innocenzo Barillaro, Pierluigi Gillotti, and Kundrati's Pindaro Inchaurreta, the trio founded KFC to provide Kundrati's media market with something long-lasting. Kundrati doesn't have many Indigenous film studios, mainly importing television and movie content, while Istalia was the lead market for producing films and TV.

KFC has already begun to build its first film studio in northeastern Kadyn, which is expected to be completed sometime in 5562. The studio is expected to have numerous sound stages, production areas, and various other facilities to allow the studio to make its own film and TV products. With the assistance of TerraMedia, KFC is expected to begin working on their first few films from 5562 onwards on their set, with advisors from Istalia providing the necessary experience and assistance to their Kundrati counterparts. Tomasadyn National will provide some funding alongside the Lirnak Investment Bank and Italian banks to allow the company to get through its first few years.

Another company has also been founded, this time for the television industry. Istalorati (a portmanteau of Istalia and Kundrati) was founded with Tomasadyn National and Lirnak Investment Bank money to provide television content to Artania in general. They're building their own space in Leuansk, Pilgon, and it is expected to have similar facilities as the KFC studio.

Istalorati will also have Istalian funding and assistance from Istalian television producers Mediagroup S.p.A. Said television producers are there to provide their own guidance and assistance to their Kundrati counterparts as they produce their first television programs. The goal is to start making general television programming by the year 5560. Mediagroup is also well regarded in the Istalian television history for various hit dramas and television shows. It is hoped that Istalorati will be able to provide Artanians with the best in homegrown television programming.
