Incredible Film and Phanta Basta! invite you to join them for the world premiere screening of SAÏD & ANNA at MIPJunior Saturday October 14, 2023
A live-action high-end pre-school series (16×6,5′), SAÏD & ANN, directed by Hilt Lochten, is set in a repair shop, powered by a deep friendship, where children’s autonomy is celebrated, and important topics such as sustainability and diversity are approached in an authentic and imaginative way for its young, developing audience.
The series is a co-production with Indi Film and 3 TV channels – the Netherlands’ EO /NPO Zappelin, Germany’s SWR / Kika and Belgium’s VRT / Ketnet. It is a truly international production at heart with a cinematic feel.
Following the premiere, there will be an exclusive panel with Eveline Groeneveld, the Head of Children’s Programming at EO, Robert Fortuijn, Manager of NPO Zappelin, Stefanie von Ehrenstein, the Head of Children’s Programming at SWR, Annemie Gulickx, Channel Manager of Ketnet VRT and Harro van Staverden, producer at Phanta Basta! to talk about the uniquely progressive and innovative co-production.
The panelists will also discuss the globally-resounding premise of the series – that everyone is valuable, everyone is equal, and that no distinctions should be made based on ethnicity, religion, or personal beliefs.
