Mediatoon Distribution diversifies its line-up

Ahead of MIPCOM, Mediatoon Distribution, part of French entertainment powerhouse

Média-Participations, expands its diverse offer adding two TV specials and a feature film

to its line-up. With one of Europe’s largest animation catalogs, with over 5,000 hours of

premium content, the Paris-based distributor is committed to offering a wide range of

demographics, genres, storytelling and visual styles.

At MIPCOM, Mediatoon will launch Martin Morning: The Chinese Mystery (86’), an

adventure feature-film aimed at family audiences. It follows Martin, a young boy with a

special power: everyday he wakes up with a new appearance, from a pirate to an alien

and even a dragon! Because of his special ability, Martin journeys to a village in China to

defeat a mysterious beast. But there’s a problem: he can’t control his unpredictable

power! Ready for delivery, the movie is a spinoff of the beloved character from the fourseason

animated series Martin Morning, distributed in more than 150 territories.

Additionally, the distributor will showcase two new TV specials acquired from thirdparties

producers, reinforcing Mediatoon’s commitment to external productions that

complement the in-house line-up of its sister companies (Ellipse Animation, Belvision,

Studio Campedelli).

Zoobox (26’), a preschool stop-motion adventure following a curious kangaroo that loses

her parents after boarding a boat. Driven to find them, she starts her search, meeting

countless animals along the way. With a great educational added value, Zoobox raises

awareness about climate change in a playful and poetic way.

Venice, the Most Ancient City of the Future (26’), a kids and family time-traveling

adventure. Falling through a mysterious gate, Nanna embarks on a journey thanks to an

antique time machine, visiting the Venice from the past and the future. Between History

and family roots, Nanna will realize that the future of her beloved city lies in her own

hands! Venice, the Most Ancient City of the Future is a strong fable celebrating

ecological consciousness and the power role of children taking action !

Morgann Favennec, Deputy Managing Director of Mediatoon Distribution, adds:

“We are excited to attend MIPCOM with such a diverse slate, showcasing wellestablished

IPs and original concepts. Highlighting the variety of talents, narrative tons,

and visual styles in animation remains a top priority for us as distributors
