Global Agency grabs Israeli format

Turkey-based distributor Global Agency has picked up distribution rights to an Israeli format in which members of the public solve each other’s conflicts.

Made by Israel’s Studio Glam and Gil Productions, Street Jury sees real people have their everyday, light-hearted conflicts resolved by a jury of their peers.

Everyone involved in the conflict agrees in advance that the majority verdict will be final, and binding, meaning that whichever side can convince the most members of the public to support their case, will win the trial.

Global says the format can play in all timeslots, is easily localised, and can suit different cultures and audience tastes.

Izzet Pinto, CEO of Global, said: “It’s a beautifully simple format, and quickly sucks viewers into its stories.”

Global recently formed a partnership in Israel with former Armoza Formats exec Metin Bilman and talent agent Irit Neeman.
