Guest From The Future - A Remake Candidate?

In the 1980s, Gorky Film Studio in Moscow produced a very charming TV series for children, called Guest From the Future (Гостья из будущего), based on the novel One Hundred Years Ahead (Сто лет тому вперед by Kir Bulychev.

The 5-part series had a total running time of 5 hours and was wildly popular. Re-runs are still shown on Russian TV. The series starred Natalya Guseva as Alisa Seleznyova, a girl from the future that travels to the present and Aleksei Fomkin as Kolia Gerasimov, a boy from the present who travels to the future.

The property might be a good candidate for a Hollywood-produced remake with contemporary production standards. The slow pace of the original would benefit from shortening, which could easily bring the running time down to a marketable format.
