Arm Nation, a new TV series from Picture This Productions’ Maureen Marovitch (NSI Drama Prize, NSI Global Marketing) and David Finch (NSI Drama Prize, NSI Totally Television), premieres on APTN on October 20, 2018.

The 13 x 30 minute series focuses on the training, competitions and personal life challenges of over a dozen Indigenous men and women who train, mentor and compete at the highest levels of one of the world’s oldest sports – arm wrestling.

Already a popular televised sport in Eastern and Northern Europe, North American arm wrestling’s base has grown steadily in the past three years, though it still remains a niche sport. This series aims to help change that.
