Tulipop Tales is a comedic, modern-day fairytale for young audiences. The fantastical Tulipop island, inspired by Iceland’s eclectic heritage and mystical folklore, is home to a group of five very different but equally loveable friends – Fred, Bubble, Gloomy, Maddy and Mr Tree – and a whole host of magical, whimsical creatures.

Beta, a once promising musician finds herself in a stale marriage, struggling to be the mother she wants to be to her toddler. When their new au-pair, a young man, starts to propose little “flirting-assignments” for the husband and wife to do, Beta is unwittingly forced to take risks and re-enter the world.

After the banking crisis the travel industry became a desirable goldmine in Iceland. When three very different, middle-aged siblings inherit the successful whale watching company and the beautiful summerhouse their parents built, things become extremely difficult. To take joint decisions about the legacy they all feel entitled to creates complex circumstances, and when they start to manipulate what they are to share, old wounds open up with dire consequences where hurt, greed and the well-known dysfunction of family relations come to light.
