Last week at the German Children's Media Festival “Goldener Spatz” in Gera and Erfurt was exciting, thrilling and inspiring. Not only for us, but also for many children who were able to see an episode from our animation series “Fritzi and Sophie - A boundless Friendship” at the festival. The discussions after the screening with the author Beate Völcker, our storyboard artist Alex Tiedtke and director Ralf Kukula showed the children's huge interest in the story of the two friends and the GDR.

The episode “A journey that changes everything” also convinced the jury and won the GOLDEN SPARROW in the series/animation category on Friday evening. Many thanks for that!
