Looke launched in Brazil in September 2015, and has been expanding their media portfolio ever since by signing deals with major global and regional rights holders including BBC Worldwide, Globo, etc. Looke has over 12,000 movies and TV series in its library, classic movies, documentaries and music shows. Their content is available on mobile devices and desktops throughout the country.

«The Latin American market is among the key ones for us. Last year, our big package deal with Encripta, the leading Brazilian distributor, opened that rapidly developing region to several NTV projects at once. Now our content is getting traction on the Looke online platform. I’m happy to announce all four NTV’s shows bought by the Brazilian online streaming service show positive viewership dynamics. International audiences’ preferences side with our content ever more often," says Timur Weinstein, NTV General Producer.

NTV titles are a reference in the entertainment market and being able to have them in our platform is a huge achievement for us, comments Luiz Bannitz, Encripta Head of Content and Business Affairs Director.

For your information, Encripta bought the rights to several action-packed TV shows made by NTV, in 2020. The deal package covered nine products, including ‘The Sacrificing’, ‘The OPERAtive’, ‘Five Minutes of Silence’ and hit shows ‘Nevsky’ and ‘Mukhtar. The New Footprint’.
