Kristian Smeds’s new “original series” swings the audience on a vine straight into the jungle of the entertainment industry! Expect reality‑TV theatre, anarchic comedy, and an unprecedented surge of energy on the Main Stage.
Six Finnish women have been selected as the stars of a brand‑new reality‑TV production. Stepping into the skins of wild women of the jungle is a stunning ensemble of actresses: Milla Kaitalahti, Katariina Kaitue, Kate Lusenberg, Eeva Mäkinen, Pirjo Määttä and Marja Salo. Things are about to get loud — and coconuts will start falling!
This time, what happens in the jungle won’t stay in the jungle. Anyone interested can take a peek into the participants’ lives as a studio audience member, amid thrilling shoots and competitive challenges.
How will the first night in the jungle unfold as darkness falls? Who will truly bloom in front of the cameras? Will the cider run out at the party? Are there traitors among them? And who will ultimately make it to the finish line as the winner?
Behind the production—and, of course, also in front of the audience and the camera—bustle the producer mogul (Hannu-Pekka Björkman) and his assistant (Petri Manninen), who bears a striking resemblance to Jack Sparrow. The men’s intention is to rake in big money with this new hit format.
Cameras rolling! Action! Here we go — no holding back!
