Miam! Distribution Boards French Adult Animated Series ‘Mare The Mermaid’ (EXCLUSIVE)


The pickup comes as French companies respond to increased demand for local adult animated series.

The show’s official synopsis reads: “Breaking free from society’s expectations without making a splash is tough when you’re a mermaid princess who doesn’t quite fit the mold. For the cartoon comedy, production will lean more heavily on de Ceccatty, an up-and-coming filmmaker who made a splash with his 2022 animated short “Lilith & Eve,” which premiered as an official selection of the Tribeca Film Festival. Although he was raised in France, de Ceccatty was strongly influenced by the American half of his family – he speaks English with no noticeable accent – and imported animated series that were popular with other kids his age.
