Pippi Longstocking, a feminist heroine for children
For those who discovered the little girl with red hair in the cartoon, they would have been biased. Indeed, after the success of the films and series with Inger Nilsson, Pippi Longstocking became a cartoon and appeared on French TV. But its initial characteristics had changed somewhat.

In Sweden, the author Astrid Lindgren created the character of the little girl as a free, independent, powerful child, calling into question the relationships between adults and children and between girls and boys. Arriving in France, Pippi Longstocking was more sanitized, largely leaving aside her strength and rebellious spirit. In 2022, it has never been so important to remember her and the one who lent her features!
