awards
Review episode LinKk at the PrixCirCom 2009: 102 LINKK - ANIMALS AND NATURE (20 min 22 sec) (LINKK, BISTEN AND NATOER) OMROEP FRYSLAN NETHERLANDS Two languages, teenage and adult actors working together, a mixture of fiction and reality... It shouldn't work, but somehow it mostly does. This is a fast-paced program that manages to be funny and make a point. The low budget doesn't show and the standard of acting is uniformly high. We felt that the educational element of the script was at times a little heavy-handed but this program packs a lot of punch.
