How come the Czechs are so good at fairy-tales
Growing up in East-Germany, I had the privilege to get to know so many Czech fairy-tale films and they still stand out as some of the best children´s films I have ever seen:
I can only roughly translate the German titles of those films.
Pan Tau, Arabella, the Fairy-Tale princess, The flying Ferdinand, The girl on the broomstick, The last aquarius of Bohemia, The blacksmith, How to wake up princesses, Lucy. They all have this special touch of irony in them. OMG, I didn´t realise there were so many. I can think of so many more. Most of them were also broadcast on West-German television as the quality of Czech children´s TV is recognised anywhere in the world.
