The talented group of young actors is led by Marta Mihanović as Alisa and Maks Kleončić as Milan. Andrija Lamot, Mark Spiridonović, and Martin Pišlar are joining them as the young detectives.
“This film is filled with many comedic elements, and we plan to tell it in a quirky, stylized cinematic language,” said Marina Andree Škop. “Through an adventurous story with strong child characters, a humorous approach, an unconventional visual style, and a combination of live-action and animated film elements, we want to entertain young audiences and at the same time raise awareness about an important theme, autism,” concluded Marina Andree Škop.
“Marina and I come from two different film worlds; my focus is on animated film, while hers is live-action children's film,” added Vanda Raýmanová. “What unites us is a strong desire to combine these two approaches to jointly create this unique film. With it, we primarily want to sow the seeds of empathy and understanding in the minds of our young viewers, without overwhelming them with moralizing, but rather providing them with an unforgettable film experience, one that will make them laugh and worry, and intuitively understand how much they can learn from those who are different.”
The screenplay is written by Slovak screenwriter Juraj Raýman, and the producers are Tibor Keser, Marina Andree Škop, and Vanda Raýmanová. The film is expected to hit theaters in 2026.
