LevelK Boards ‘Betty Balloon,’ a Cosy Fun Adventure, Ahead of Cartoon Movie Unveil (EXCLUSIVE)
An early lift-off has already been secured for Puk Grasten’s “Betty Balloon,” as the Copenhagen-based international sales and aggregation house LevelK has secured worldwide rights to upcoming pre-school animated feature and TV series.
The agreement, brokered between LevelK CEO Tine Klint and the film’s main producer Regner Grasten, was reached just ahead of the project’s work-in-progress presentation at Cartoon Movie in Bordeaux, LevelK told Variety.
A Danish co-production between Regner Grasten Filmproduktion and A. Film Production, “Betty Balloon” follows a modern family who just happen to be… balloons.
At the centre of the story is Betty, a creative and imaginative four-year-old. Life’s turned upside down when a cactus family moves in next door. The Balloon family (Mom, Dad, and Betty’s super tweenie big brother Bobby) must learn to connect with their new neighbours. But in “Betty Balloon”, it’s the kids who lead the way, as Betty quickly becomes best friends with four-year-old Kaj Cactus, proving that curiosity and openness can bridge even the prickliest divides. In this colorful universe, it’s the kids who show the grown-ups how to connect. read the rest at variety.com
