Based in Wiesbaden, Germany, FreeWind Media GmbH is a dynamic international film acquisition and sales company
Our diverse catalog spans a wide range of genres, offering compelling content for audiences and partners worldwide.
We are driven by a bold ambition: to bring more film co-productions to life, accelerate growth across SVoD and FAST channels, and expand our international rights portfolio to ensure that great stories reach every corner of the globe.
At the heart of FreeWind Media is Benjamin Krause, our visionary shareholder. With a proven track record in the media industry, he built KSM into a powerhouse with €250 million in total sales before selling it to Plaion. In 2025, he successfully sold his second venture, Dolphin Medien GmbH – including a catalog of around 200 titles with extensive rights for German-speaking Europe – to Leonine Studios, one of Germany’s leading independent media companies.
With this experience and passion, FreeWind Media combines a premium film catalog with entrepreneurial expertise, offering partners a trusted gateway to international collaboration, distribution, and growth. We don’t just move films – we move stories, across borders and platforms, connecting creators with audiences worldwide.
