Blue Ant partners David Rocco prodco

Celebrity chef David Rocco’s Dolce India series

Distributor Blue Ant International has signed a multi-year deal to represent content from the Toronto-based production company of celebrity chef David Rocco.

Blue Ant’s agreement with Rockhead Entertainment will see it represent more than 140 hours of content across 11 seasons of David Rocco’s Dolce Vita franchise.

Rocco, co-founder of Rockhead Entertainment, is the exec producer of the lifestyle and cooking series, in which he travels the world to sample and cook regional cuisines.

As part of the deal, Blue Ant International now represents David Rocco’s Dolce Italia (13×30’), David Rocco’s Dolce Southeast Asia (13×30’), David Rocco’s Dolce Vita (39×30’), David Rocco’s Dolce Tuscany (13×30’), David Rocco’s Dolce Napoli (13×30’), David Rocco’s Dolce India (26×30’) and David Rocco’s Dolce Africa (13×30’).

“Rocco’s Dolce Vita series serves as a decadent, much-needed escape for viewers, who get to immerse themselves in the beauty, culture and, most of all, the regional cuisine of countries around the world,” said Ludo Dufour, senior VP of international coproductions and sales at Blue Ant International.
