Producer’s Portrait UFA Film & TV Produktion<br />
24<br />
Taken over in 1964 by the Bertelsmann Group when it purchased the UFA name and created the production group<br />
operating under that label, UFA Film & TV Produktion has developed over almost 40 years into a respected<br />
address for the production of popular series and high quality TV movies. UFA productions range from such TV movies<br />
as The Policewoman (Die Polizistin) by Andreas Dresen or The Sandman (Der Sandmann) by<br />
Nico Hofmann through the daily soaps Good Times – Bad Times (Gute Zeiten, Schlechte Zeiten) and<br />
Forbidden Love (Verbotene Liebe) to weeklies like Behind Bars (Hinter Gittern) and such crime series<br />
as Balko and SOKO 5113 (and SOKO Leipzig). Together with its affiliates UFA Fernsehproduktion, UFA<br />
Film Production, Westdeutsche Universum-Film in Cologne, UFA Film Munich, UFA Film- &<br />
Medienproduktion Leipzig, Grundy UFA, UFA International and UFA Entertainment, the company<br />
became part of the holding of Luxembourg’s CLT-UFA in January 1997 and is now part of the RTL Group which<br />
was created following the merger with the Pearson Television Group in 2000.<br />

UFA Film & TV Produktion<br />
Switch on a television in <strong>German</strong>y and there is a very likely chance<br />
that the program showing at the moment is one created by UFA<br />
Film & TV Produktion. Indeed, nearly every channel, both<br />
public and private, airs UFA productions, whether they be TV<br />
movies, soap operas, series, light entertainment or feature length<br />
movies, making UFA the clear leader in the <strong>German</strong> TV market,<br />
ahead of such competitors as the Bavaria Group, Studio Hamburg<br />
and ndf Neue Deutsche Filmgesellschaft.<br />
