Apple Tree House

Storyline

An everyday slice of modern life through children's eyes Apple Tree House is a 30 x 15minute scripted live-action television series aimed at the older preschool audience. Catering to a young child's sense of fun, curiosity and adventure, the storytelling will share valuable life lessons in responsibility, kindness and being a good friend. Apple Tree House portrays a vibrant, contemporary, inner-city estate - bursting with life. A place where the whole audience will see people they know on screen. Because we all smile in the same language. Mali is an ordinary boy, with an ordinary family who have just moved into the extraordinary inner-city world of the Apple Tree House estate and on his arrival in his new home Mali is introduced to a special new friend Sam. Together Mali and Sam provide a uniquely innocent perspective on the real world. Every episode features an adventure as they solve daily problems and overcome childhood dilemmas - all within the safety net of their loving families and the inspirational Apple Tree community that surrounds them. There is always something to be learned. Whilst the adults might have some answers - (often they don't!) - the grown-ups are able to guide our young protagonists with enough information so that the kids find the solutions and solve the problems themselves. Everything in Apple Tree House is seen from the child's point of view. Some episodes will focus on the immediate world from Mali's perspective and other times Sam's interpretation comes to the fore. We will also be entertained and amused by shared insights that highlight the contrasting personalities of our two lead characters, Mali and Sam. Whatever the adventure in the busy world of Apple Tree House, Mali and Sam will help us explore sameness through difference.
