Germany's EM.TV continues to move into the tween age group with its animation slate. At MIPCOM the media group will be presenting TIMM THALER, a story about a young orphan boy named Timm who uses mysticism and magic to battle the evil Baron Lived. EM.TV holds TV and video rights for all territories except for Germany, Austria, Alto Adige, Switzerland, Luxemburg and Liechtenstein. Other animation being taken to the market by EM.TV includes: KARLSSON ON THE ROOF, which follows the adventures of Karlsson, an ageless bundle of mischief with a propeller on his back; WHAT ABOUT MIMI?, a comedy featuring 12-year-old Mimi Morton whose wild imagination often lands her and her loyal friends in hot water; and THE AMAZING JOURNEYS OF JULES VERNE, six 50-minute adventure specials based on Jules Verne's classic novels.
