Die allerlangweiligste Oma auf der ganzen Welt

The Most Boring Granny in the Whole World
Is it ok to play funeral with your grandmother while she’s sleeping? Not according to Greta’s granny. But the girl can’t think of anything better to do, seeing as granny isn't exactly animated when she’s awake either. Always scolding: "Don’t touch the matryoshka dolls! Don’t paint the black-and-white photos!" What’s left after death? You can’t have good memories without sharing nice moments. The expressively animated duo tackles this dilemma.
