What happens

Pippi Longstocking is a 1997 animated musical adventure comedy film co-directed by Michael Schaack and Clive A. Smith, and written by Catharina Stackelberg, based on the eponymous children's books by Astrid Lindgren. A joint Canadian-German-Swedish venture co-produced by AB Svensk Filmindustri, IdunaFilm, TFC Trickompany and Nelvana Limited with the participation of Teletoon, the film features the voices of Melissa Altro, Catherine O'Hara, Gordon Pinsent, Dave Thomas, Wayne Robson and Carole Pope. For its releases in both the United States and Canada, the film was distributed theatrically by Legacy Releasing, and on VHS and DVD by Warner Home Video under their Warner Bros. Family Entertainment label. It is Nelvana's first animated theatrical feature since Babar: The Movie. The film served as a pilot of a spin-off television series, which premiered on Teletoon in Canada, and then aired on HBO. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
