NEW PROJECTS
In the last MIPCOM, Ukraine’s Glowberry productions brought "Mom Hurries Home," a new animated series for children by the creators of the international hit "Brave Bunnies". Everyday, Mom turns her daily trips home from work into magical adventure stories, inspired by her son Alex’s fantasy games. Together, they are transforming their humdrum city into a magical place. The main idea of the project – kids and parents could play the same game, making every day extraordinary by their imagination.



"Mom Hurries Home" is a successful Ukrainian brand, developed from a series of books by Sveta Dorosheva (Ukraine/Israel) that quickly became popular among children and parents alike. The series was also published in China and South Korea, where it gained noticeable success as well. Building on this success, Glowberry production together with FILM.UA Group began the development of the preschool TV series.
