This Sunday, Trude and her flatmate are faced with a puzzling, empty Easter basket: What objects should they paint for Easter, where should they hide them? And who should do so, the Easter bunny? Or perhaps someone or something much larger… All of this will be revealed this Sunday on German TV:
09.30 am (Das Erste) and 11.30 pm (KiKA) as part of “Sendung mit der Maus”
Eager to see more? “Trudes Tier” will be available on DVD and German on-demand services soon:
Happy new year! We hope you had a wonderful turn of the year.

We are looking back upon a full week dedicated to the animated films at this year’s Festival of Animated Film in Stuttgart (ITFS). Besides the festival premiere of ‘Trude’s Tier’ (‘Trude’s Flatmate’) and several screenings of ‘Trolltag’ (‘The Troll Trap’), ‘The Amazing World of Gumball’ has been awarded with a Screenplay Trickstar for Best Children’s Animated Series. Klaus Morschheuser and Mathias Schreck attend the ceremony on behalf of Cartoon Network Europe. The Jury’s explanation: ‘We chose this film because of its highly original visual style, its whacky, energetic comedic timing and its heart-warming story that appeals to both kids and adults. Well done!’
Congratulations to the whole team!
