Michael Steiner plans football series for SF
Swiss television has already granted a development loan for the 20-part series project.
Michael Steiner, the director of the Swiss films "Grounding" and "Eugen", is working on a 20-part television series about football. Swiss television has already granted a development loan for the series project, as the 36-year-old explains in an interview with the TV magazine TV-Star. According to Steiner, the series is intended as a prelude to the 2008 European Championships if the concept is well received by SF. Steiner is developing the football fiction for P.C. Fueter's production company C-Films. The football series is to be in the style of successful productions such as "Six Feet Under" or "24".
