    BELGRADE: Serbian TV drama/thriller series Children of Evil / Deca zla directed by Ivan Stefanović and Vladimir Tagić had its world premiere on HBO Max on 2 November 2023. The series stemming from a bestselling novel by Miodrag Majić was produced by Telekom Srbija and Firefly Production.

    “Bringing a high end TV product from this region onto a global viewing platform such as HBO Max certainly takes a great deal of work, patience and preparations. However, at the same time it may be regarded as a natural outcome of the continuous effort Firefly Production invests into upgrading its works and making prestigious content transcend into the realm where stories with a strong local flavour become universally comprehensible and meet viewers willing to try something new”, Boban Jevtić, Firefly’s head of content, told FNE.
