(2 March 2023 – Amsterdam) To coincide with Women's History Month, Insight TV the leading millennial-focused global channel operator, and global production company NEO Studios (discovery+’s Legacy: In the Shadow of Greatness; Prime Video’s Life After) have teamed up to bring "Breakthrough: Women Changing The Game'' to audiences worldwide. 

Episode one of the six-part docuseries premieres in North America on March 6 at 9:00pm EST on INFAST, which is available on Samsung TV Plus, Plex and Amazon’s Freevee. That same day, the first episode will premiere across North America (9:00pm EST), Europe (21:00 CET) and Asia (21:00 KST) on INULTRA, which is available across a range of providers and 4K UHD channels including KPN, Free, SKB, T-Mobile, Vodafone, D-Smart and more.

This groundbreaking new series showcases the incredible talent and resilience of female athletes in traditionally male-dominated sports, including Natalie Decker (NASCAR), Hollie Doyle (Jockey), Emily Linscott (Formula 4), and Leilani Caamal (American Football). Viewers will get unprecedented access behind-the-scenes with these four top athletes as they navigate make-or-break seasons in their respective sports.

The docuseries focuses on how the women have faced not only the doubt and fierce competition of professional sports, but also gender discrimination. Through exclusive footage and pulse-pounding action sequences, Breakthrough: Women Changing The Game is a never-before-seen look at what it takes to make it against all odds.

Said Michael O’Connor, VP Production at Insight TV, "We have worked hard with the talented team at NEO Studios to bring these engaging stories about female athletes excelling in male dominated sports to the screen and we are looking forward to sharing them with our dedicated audience. Since we first saw the project, we believed that these were unique stories which fit with our creative mindset and our commitment to deliver inspiring stories to our Millennial and Gen-Z audiences and our broadcast partners around the world."

Said NEO Studios Global CEO Anouk Mertens, “Sports are rich with inspiring stories that showcase human triumph, and NEO specializes in mining the powerful, often over-looked tales from this world and bringing them to light. Natalie, Hollie, Emily and Leilani have each overcome tremendous adversity to get to where they are today, and because of this, their personal journeys and careers are absolutely riveting. We are proud to share their stories alongside Insight TV with audiences worldwide.”

Breakthrough: Women Changing The Game was created and directed by Mike Basone and produced by NEO Studios for Insight TV. Basone, Melanie Capacia Johnson and Mertens serve as executive producers for NEO Studios. Michael O'Connor, Nicolas Kazamia and Kristen Broberg also executive produce.
