(Toronto, ON – October 1, 2014): Just as one of the biggest film festivals in the world has wrapped, The Fremantle Corporation brings the exciting documentary BEHIND THE RED CARPET to MIPCOM.  Produced by Barking Frog Productions and Mountain Goat Film Company, BEHIND THE RED CARPET reveals the untold secrets and pressure-fuelled stories of the key players and celebrities involved with Toronto International Film Festival.  

"Whenever we are able to showcase a project with exclusive stories and interesting characters to the market, we are excited.  BEHIND THE RED CARPET has garnered a ton of interest as celebrities, red carpets and uncensored access has worldwide appeal,” says The Fremantle Corporation President, Randy Zalken. 

BEHIND THE RED CARPET is currently available on ITunes (excluding Canada) and will launch this month on Xbox, Google and Sony.  CBC's documentary Channel will air the Canadian Television Premiere in February 2015.  

BEHIND THE RED CARPET follows five lead characters who are the top in their field including Toronto/New York based publicist Natasha Koifman, a foremost journalist, Chris Jancelewicz, Casie Stewart, world famous blogger, George Pimentel, Canada's most renowned celebrity photographer as well as Pierre Jutras, venue operator and President of The Spoke Club.  These key players are thrown into the fire as they try their very best to appease the biggest and brightest stars from around the globe. Sometimes the biggest egos and personalities are on the other side of the carpet.

BEHIND THE RED CARPET, available as either a 90 minute feature or a one hour special, exposes the biggest events with the hottest stars including Julia Roberts, Nicholas Cage, Mila Kunis, Maria Bello, Moran Atias, Colin Firth, Paul Haggis, Adrien Brody, Michael Bolton, Caitlin Cronenberg, Mekhi Phifer to name a few.
