Fox & Hare, an animated series produced by Submarine in the Netherlands, Walking the Dog in Belgium and Doghouse Films in Luxembourg, has been sold into a range of markets by APC Kids.

The 26×11-minute show for the 4-to-7 set, inspired by forest fables, was commissioned by Ketnet in Belgium and KRO-NCRV in the Netherlands. It has been licensed to DR in Denmark, RTHK in Hong Kong and Piwi+ in France, following presales to RTBF Belgium, YLE Finland, RUV Iceland, ERR Estonia and TVP Poland.

The series is directed by Mascha Halberstad and Tom van Gestel, adapted from the book of the same name by Sylvia Vanden Heede and Thé Tjong Khing published by Lannoo Publishers.

“The mix of clay and 3D animation in Fox & Hare creates a series with a distinctive look and feel,” said Lionel Marty, managing director of APC Kids. “Combined with the universal theme of friendship and community, we are delighted that new global broadcasters are partnering with us to bring audiences into the world of this fun new show.”
