Produced by HOT, "Queens," which focuses on a fictional crime family, opens at a bachelor party for Eyal Malka, head of a local mafia empire. Hitmen board the family's yacht and kill all the male members, leaving the women of the family to cope on their own.
The "queens," led by Dori – played by Israeli singer Rita – who had been fighting among themselves, lose their status and their power in one fell swoop in a world that reveres only one thing – force.
Nadav Hanin, VP of content and innovation at HOT, said, "It's an honor to bring HOT's unique content to so many viewers all over the world.
"After [the series] was sold to HBO, HOT does it again and is reaching additional international platforms," Hanin said.
