Pitch Summary: What if you were a kid, in the Present day, and you discover a top-secret intergalactic league of extraterrestrials who want to recruit YOU for their Space cadet program? For 13-year old math whiz Maya Sun, engineering prodigy Juan Manuel Morales and wise-cracking gamer Dex Evans, saving the universe will soon be as important as juggling their schoolwork. Ever since she was a young child, Maya dreamed of following in her astronaut mom's footsteps and exploring Space. It isn't until Maya, Juan Manuel and Dex realize that the new kid at school, Velana (sent to assess their readiness for a new Space initiative called Starseeker), is an extra-curious extraterrestrial, that their lives change forever. As a motley team, they come to discover together how heroes are made; how each and every one of us has something to offer, and how the choices we make in life define who we are and who we become. Despite their vast differences, the Starseekers will learn - with fun and hijinks along the way - that bravery, kindness, compassion, humour and teamwork can help overcome any object they face in the far reaches of the galaxy or closer to home.

Pitch Summary: Vika has endured her insignificant life for 15 years. The girl is infuriated by her mother, a schoolteacher who haunts Vika at home and school. She hates her younger brother, who was born to become a new incarnation of Satan. Vika also abhors her worthless small town in Eastern Ukraine, her school, and her offensive classmates. They don't admire her gothic dress style, her habit of saying "f**k off" in response to "hello", and her three-legged rat. Vika despises the world, and it reciprocates. Therefore, the girl decided not to burden the universe with her presence: she is going to commit suicide. Vika has been preparing for this solemn event for a long time, and the ceremony will be as dramatic as Vika likes. Vika will say goodbye to her life in her school in front of her classmates, teachers, and mother. And it will happen on February 24, when Vika will be 16. However, the planned "ceremony" is interrupted because the war begins in Ukraine on this day. With her mother and brother, Vika is forced to leave home and go to the Netherlands to find shelter. Paradoxically, the war literally saves the life of the girl who wants to end it. But does she REALLY wish to be saved?

Pitch Summary: The Boy Who Cried miBot is the story of young, neurodiverse boy, Eliot, who thinks he is a robot in a world where everyone owns a personal robot: so-called “miBots”. Set in a blissful future era, one thing this Utopia did not foresee was that the rise of humanoid robots would lead to a pandemic known as M.A.A.D. - "miBot Addiction & Attachment Disorder". Their solution: round up and dispose of all humanoid miBots and redesign new robots to look more machine-like. But Eliot, to the confusion and despair of his loved ones, is convinced he is a miBot and his journey becomes clear: find the 'Father' of miBot Programme to fix his faulty emotion settings so he can be a better servant to the long-suffering humans that surround him. Escaping with a band of broken miBots, Eliot journeys through the not-so-utopian world of "miLiberation", encountering Bandits, Poachers and Marshalls, all of whom share one task: dispose and disband of human-like miBots. But who - or what - is Eliot really and is there more to this Utopia than meets the miEye?

Pitch Summary: A coming-of-age mystery series created by TikTok sensation Tope Babalola, BENJAMIN OJO follows the titular Ben, a brilliant but lonely 13-year-old with deduction and perception skills rivalling those of Sherlock Holmes. Lydia Park, the new girl at school, is an energetic and artistic student with an obsession with mystery novels. Ben takes a chance on friendship and strikes up a detective partnership with Lydia, and the two are launched into their first big case when they must clear the name of Autumn Academy Middle School's star athlete (and Ben's former best friend) Jeremy Pitt after he's framed for a mysterious and high-profile act of vandalism.

As the detective duo dives deeper into the case, and many of Autumn Academy's most prolific students are named suspects, Ben and Lydia soon realize the vandalism is just a drop in a much larger ocean of secrets that threaten to topple the school status quo, and as a result there are plenty of students willing to do whatever it takes to stop the investigation in its tracks to keep their own secrets buried.  And all the while the detectives must navigate the ups and downs of an infinitely more impossible task: surviving junior high!
