CANNES: The central character in Zodiak Kids’ Kody Kapow is an aspiring martial arts-style superhero who spends the summer with his extended family in a small Chinese village.

There, his grandfather, who is a martial arts master, teaches him about mindfulness, patience and perseverance.

The preschool series Magiki is set in a magical world found on the other side of the toy box. The show follows a curious little girl who is a bit of a tomboy. “Magiki explores how fantasy and imagination help resolve real-world issues that kids are facing,” says Jean-Philippe Randisi, the CEO of Zodiak Kids.

Another company highlight is Secret Life of Boys, a live-action interactive comedy. The show centers on an Australian girl who spends her summer holidays surrounded by her boy cousins in the U.K.

Randisi adds: “Zodiak Kids makes its broadcast partners successful by creating unique shows with global appeal.”
