Tapping into a white space for compelling comedies for 6- to 10-year-old boys and girls, Studio 100 International lands at MIPJunior this year with the new series Louca<\/em><\/a>, based on the hit comic book series by Bruno Dequier and published by Dupuis.<\/p>\n

\"***Image***\"\u201cAfter our successful collaboration with Media Valley on the globally acclaimed project Gifted<\/em>, we were immediately intrigued by Louca<\/em>,\u201d says Dorian Buehr, head of global distribution at Studio 100 International, on how the company came to be involved with the production. \u201cThe series stood out with its unique tone, universal themes and exceptional visual quality. It was a natural next step to partner again with Media Valley\u2014this time joined by their co-producer Belvision\u2014to bring this extraordinary IP to international screens.\u201d<\/p>\n

Buehr describes Louca <\/em>as a \u201cvibrant comedy blending humor, heart and high-school life, while championing themes of courage, friendship and self-belief. The series truly reflects the world young audiences live in today and engages them with dynamic characters and compelling storytelling.\u201d<\/p>\n

In comic-book form, the world has already resonated with kids, delivering more than a million readers to date, Buehr says, \u201cgiving the brand a strong foundation and a ready-made fan base.\u201d<\/p>\n

The series follows the misadventures of Louca, an awkward and accident-prone teen, and his ghostly mentor, Nathan, a confident football star, delivering a \u201cdistinctive buddy dynamic,\u201d Buehr continues. \u201cWhile football provides a high-energy backdrop and clear stakes, the real story is about personal growth. The series uses humor as a constant thread, even when tackling serious topics, creating a tone that is accessible, emotional and always entertaining. Visually striking and emotionally grounded, Louca<\/em> delivers a truly fresh take on coming-of-age storytelling.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe series is targeting a broad audience base,\u201d Buehr says, noting that it was conceived as \u201ca mixed-gender show. Its ensemble of relatable characters\u2014both boys and girls\u2014lets every viewer see themselves on-screen. Characters like Julie, a shy yet observant girl, and Chlo\u00e9, a bold and confident one, broaden the emotional scope and ensure that the series resonates across the gender spectrum. While the football elements bring kinetic energy and structure to the stories, the heart lies in themes such as friendship, self-confidence and school life\u2014topics that transcend gender. Combined with Louca\u2019s hilarious misadventures and high-energy slapstick, the series offers something for everyone in the 6-to-10 demo.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dequier, who created the comic book series, has been closely involved with the screen adaptation, having developed the graphic bible. \u201cTogether with Media Valley\u2019s Natalie Altmann, he helped ensure the show remains true to the comic\u2019s humor-first spirit,\u201d Buehr says. \u201cAt the same time, Louca<\/em> has evolved into a visually rich CGI series with a diverse and globally appealing cast. The storytelling remains faithful to the comics while opening doors for new audiences across markets. With themes like identity, self-worth and overcoming challenges\u2014all told through the lens of an unpredictable, endearing main character\u2014Louca<\/em> is as universal as it is unique.\u201d<\/p>\n
