Franco-Tunisian film entrepreneur Tarak Ben Ammar’s Italian distribution and production outfit Eagle Pictures is beefing up its production side with the purchase of film and TV startup 302 Original Content.

Saccà, who left Pepito and joined 302 Original Content in July 2021, will stay on board as its managing director.
