MIPJunior Spotlight: Australian Children’s Television Foundation

A Netflix Original, The Inbestigators is a live-action comedy about four children who form a detective agency and solve one mystery after another.

Australian Children’s Television Foundation is offering the first two seasons for international sales, with broadcast available in August 2021.

The company will be screening episodes of Hardball, a live-action series for 7- to 10-year-olds, at MIPJunior for the first time. “While traversing the highs and lows of pre-teen life, Hardball explores themes of family, multiculturalism and acceptance,” says Tim Hegarty, international sales manager. Buyers can also view episodes of the animated series Little J & Big Cuz, which follows the adventures of a couple of Indigenous Australian kids living in the outback with their Nanna and Old Dog.

Hegarty adds, “These stories deliver messages of inclusion, acceptance, friendship and togetherness with natural ease.”
