Faulas

Faulas is an educational animated series in stop motion cut out which re-elaborates nursery rhymes and sayings from popular tradition in a playful, ironical manner. The series takes its cue from local, still current sayings whose true meaning has however been lost, and uses them to tell universal stories. Combining the ability for memorizing rhyming couplets with playful atmospheres created through illustrations for children, and the cut out technique, it is capable of charming both kids and adults. Faulas is a horizontal series, in each self-contained episode, a calm but firm voice narrates in rhyme the misadventures of the protagonists: they are lazy, absent-minded, bungling and lively kids whose behaviour epitomizes the nursery-rhyme at the core of an episode.
