The series was commissioned by Croatian public broadcaster HRT and created by Croatian producer Recircle (Misho & Robin, Tree & Bee, Nutz) with Simon Rolph (Wussywat the Clumsy Cat) as co-creator and head writer.
The project was supported by the Croatian Audiovisual Centre (HAVC), the city of Zagreb, and the MEDIA Sub-programme of Creative Europe.
Who Who explores the world, diversities and social-emotional challenges through the eyes of a curious little owl called Who Who, who loves to play and have fun discovering about the world and meeting new people. Each episode someone new alights at the station to await their next train. No matter who it is or where they’re from, Who Who and friends welcome them into Tiny Hill with open arms, before involving them in an adventure where someone’s problem needs fixing or there’s a puzzle to solve.
They love meeting the new people that roll in and out of the village as each time they learn something new about them and the world outside, making their own world that little bit bigger. The show delights in contradicting stereotypes of all kinds, whilst finding solutions to some common social emotional problems. The stories explore notions of cultural and gender diversity and open up a world of possibilities.
Denis Alenti, producer at Recircle says:
I couldn’t be prouder of our team for what we were able to accomplish with this show and I can’t wait for more little fans to discover the fun and educational world of little owl Who Who and his best friends.
Sara Cooper, Founder of Meta Media Entertainment, says:
As the importance of diversity becomes more and more relevant, it’s great to see the positive message of this lovable series going out to more and more children around the world.
