When the going gets tough, the tough get together: Brazil’s Globo, Latin America’s biggest media company, has struck an 18-title licensing deal with Netflix, led by one jewel in Globo’s crown, Walter Salles’ Academy Award winner “I’m Still Here.”

Kicking in from December, the agreement sees titles rolling out on Netflix through mid-2027.

The wide-ranging deal also takes in “India – A Love Story,” created by Glória Perez, the doyenne of Brazilian telenovela writers, and directed by Marcos Schechtman, which won the 2009 International Emmy for Best Telenovela.
