I'm actually surprised so many people outside of italy know about la linea, i guess it being basically a mute cartoon allowed it to spread since you didn't need to translate it. But still, its nice to see

According to Wikipedia it was shown in over 50 countries and won prizes outside Italy.

I loved it as a kid but somehow always thought it was originally French. Thanks for telling the original name.

The la for poating. Very interesting the intro to whose line is it anyway posted by someone else here is identical. Total inspiration or I guess rip off. Makes me wonder, can drawing style be copyrighted? ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”
