    VILNIUS: Mumbai-based GoQuest Media has acquired the Lithuanian dramedy series Troll Farm / Trolių ferma directed by Ernestas Jankauskas and produced by Dansu Films.

    Troll Farm, which stars Gabija Siurbyte (also the co-creator and producer of the series), made its debut earlier in 2023 on Lithuania’s national broadcaster (LRT) and on local streaming platform Telia Play. It was the first time when a local show has been streamed and broadcast simultaneously on television.  

    The series became the inaugural winner of Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival’s TV Beats Forum, and it was also showcased at Content London, Série Series (France) and Berlinale Series Market Selects.

    Troll Farm was supported by the Lithuanian Film Centre, the Lithuanian National Television and Radio and Telia Lietuva.
