Bash Tchelik is an old, well known and popular Serbian fairy tale. It is conceived as a family entertainment movie, with elements of horror, but filled with humour. Bash Tchelik was a great villain who wanted to seek revenge from the king who had imprisoned him. The story will be combined with elements of other Serbian fairy tales, and filled with creatures from Serbian mythology, whose design will be taken from the popular book, exhibition and a short animated film Ogres and Bogies (1989) by Rastko Ćirić.
