SkyShowtime is expanding its original programming with its first Polish documentary, focusing on the life of sports figure Grzegorz Krychowiak. Entitled "Krychowiak: One Step from the Top," the documentary will debut on the platform later this year.
The announcement was made at the Content Warsaw event by SkyShowtime CEO Monty Sarhan and Senior Regional Content Director, Central and Eastern Europe, Edyta Pytlewska-Mele. Mr. Sarhan stated: “In the two years since SkyShowtime launched, we have seen how audiences continue to be captivated by local stories. From scripted dramas such as Śleboda, Langer, and Glina which is currently in production, to documentaries, SkyShowtime is committed to being the home for unmissable original stories—a place for both storytellers and story lovers.”
Unlike a typical sports documentary, SkyShowtime emphasizes that this production offers a raw and uncensored look at Krychowiak's life, going beyond the football pitch to explore his personal journey with his wife, French model and bodybuilder Celia Jaunat. "Krychowiak: One Step from the Top" is produced by Papaya Films.
