PILOT
‘THE EXORCIST’
“In Argentina, every patient has a form of religious belief. They come
here, having already been to a bishop, curer or evangelical priest.”

PILOT
‘THE EXORCIST’
• We meet fame-hungry exorcist in poor Buenos Aires suburb.
• We see alarming exorcisms that ‘cure’ his paying followers.
• This is the last resort for suicidal 17-year-old Candela.
• A psychiatrist warns of dangerous & illegal spiritual leaders.
• Odd and entertaining interactions with the exorcist’s team
bring levity, humour and intrigue.
• A climactic denouement: the exorcist takes Andrew off-
camera and confronts him with the unexpected words:
“Now it’s my turn to interview you”
• The exorcist’s façade falls in this shocking argument, calling
into question his dealings with the young and vulnerable.

R AT I O N A L E : W H AT D O A U D I E N C E S W A N T ?
• As seen from early Louis Theroux, audiences enjoy the tension and humour
coming from an outsider confronting a controversial & entertaining figure.
• Our pilot has an intriguing character operating on the edge of society & a
presenter working his way into the thick of the action to uncover the truth.
• Speaking in a foreign language grants Andrew a naïve mask, so he gets
away with posing awkward questions and making irreverent statements.
SERIES CONCEPT

featuring colourful characters,
controversial beliefs and unusual lifestyles.
