From Paper Owl Films comes fantastical heroes, legendary villains and a reality that bends around Celtic magic, the adventures of sassy 12-year-old, Lí Ban are some of the wildest ever passed down the Celtic generations. Her quest is now a thrilling, fast-paced adventure anime series for kids 7-9 worldwide.

Transformed mysteriously from girl and dog into mermaid and sea otter, Lí Ban and her faithful Con explore the watery kingdoms of Celtic legend, meeting gods, monsters, giants and wily humans in their search for answers. Who destroyed her homeplace? Why was she transformed? And who is she really? Theirs is an immortal quest through the heart of an ancient Celtic universe into the stories of times and places (almost) forgotten. Lí Ban seeks answers. Her quest leads her first to Aonghus Óg, and then to Manannán the sea god, but as each answer unlocks new information, bigger questions arise. Hers is a journey from childish rebel to courageous adolescent through growth that shows her the real meaning of family and what it means to be Lí Ban.

Contemporary, edge-of-your-seat plots, yet with origins in tales as old as the lands and shores that shaped them, each incredible episode brings answers that drive Lí Ban’s quest onwards in a compelling series.

Hooky story telling brings larger-than-life druids, mysterious chieftains, and a dominant male worldview, with one little girl shining through to share her wild tales. You will be hitting ‘watch next episode’ throughout this series.
