Global distributor Superights has acquired the rights to distribute Chasing Horrifox (1 x 26’) worldwide. Sales will launch during MIPTV (April 7-10), where Superights can be found at booth #R7.K28.
Chasing Horrifox is an upper-preschool comedy following Yaya, Mo and Pic, three little marmots about to experience their first hibernation. Unfortunately, they fall asleep before their parents can finish their bedtime story about the “Horrifox.” Determined to find out how the tale ends, they venture into the snowy mountains looking for the legendary, not-so-dangerous animal.
“We wanted to surprise the audience with this brand new special. Here, there’s no Little Red Riding Hood nor Hop-o-My-Thumb abandoned in the forest, but rather\ kids who are undoubtedly more modern, more difficult to impress, following their own mind, disregarding danger right down to the title, Chasing Horrifox,” says producer Mathieu Courtois.
Nathalie Pinguet, Superights’ Deputy General Manager, adds, “Children are in for a fast-paced, fun-filled adventure with Yaya, Mo and Pic. A real breath of fresh air!”
Co-produced by Vivement Lundi!, Nadasdy Film and Pictanovo, the program has been supported by Canal+, France 3 Bretagne, TVR, Tébéo, TébéSud, CNC, Région Bretagne, Région Haut-de-France, Procirep and Angoa. It premiered on Canal+ Kids on February 10.
