Following the company’s multi-screen strategy, the drama will be available through linear pay-TV and the streaming video-on-demand (VOD) service HBO Go on iOS and Android mobile devices and Xbox 360.

Filmed entirely in Argentina, El Jardín de Bronce, which is based on Gustavo Malajovich’s novel, stars well-known local actors such as Joaquín Furriel, Luis Luque, Julieta Zylberberg, Gerardo Romano, Romina Paula, Mario Pasik, Claudio da Passano, and Alan Sabbagh.

The eight-episode original series has been co-produced with Argentina’s Pol-Ka Producciones, one of the most productive content houses in the country. Directed by Hernán Goldfrid and Pablo Fendrik, the series script has been developed by Malajovich himself, together with Marcos Osorio Vidal.

“Through El Jardín de Bronce, HBO Latin America has strengthened its commitment to promoting original content production in Latin America,” said the company in a release. “Since 2004, HBO Latin America has produced series and documentaries in the region such as Dios Inc, El Hipnotizador, Magnífica 70, Psi, El Negocio and Sr Ávila.”
