TV Kids Screenings Festival: ZDF Studios

ZDF Studios arrives in Cannes with a broad selection of shows to meet the needs of every buyer in the kids’ segment, from preschool to tween.

With four highlights in the TV Kids Screenings Festival, Arne Lohmann, VP Junior, spotlights the company’s strong preschool slate, led by Grisù, about a plucky dragon who wants to be a firefighter. “This remake of the classic property will enchant a new generation of preschoolers,” Lohmann says, also pointing to another revival on offer from the company, Pettson and Findus.

ZDF Studios has also strengthened its successful live-action lineup for older kids. There’s Theodosia, targeting kids 10-plus, and a new season of #LikeMe. “The third season of #LikeMe again makes you laugh, cringe, smile, cry and sing along to catchy tunes at the same time,” Lohmann says. “Who could ask for more?”
