MIAM ! distribution and RAI have inked a deal that will see A Girl’s Coming of Age Journey: Tales of Feminine Early Bravery air on Rai Ragazzi.

The collection, made up of three TV specials, follows young girls between childhood and pre-adolescence as they overcome life challenges by conquering new environments. All three are set to air on Rai Ragazzi in March for International Women’s Day.

We are proud to let our audience enjoy three beautiful and sensitive animated specials, [featuring] three girls’ adventures lighting up their dreams, their ambitions and the right to be encouraged and respected from their family and community.”
