Produced by Canada’s award-winning Buck Productions, ‘Rich Bride, Poor Bride’ originally aired on Slice and the WE network, and Syndicado is bringing 97 episodes of the hit show to MIPTV along with other wedding-themed reality TV shows ‘Petal Pushers’ (13 x 22’) and ‘Cake Walk’ (13 x 45’).

Continuing the military theme, Syndicado’s slate also includes ‘Prelude to War’, the classic Frank Capra film that won an Oscar for Best Documentary in 1943. Syndicado is also representing over 25 hours of war-themed documentary content featuring rare and archive footage that explores the machinery, operations, leadership and strategies employed by the Allies in World War II.
