The Norwegians protested for the Czech film Cinderella. In their remake, acorns replace nuts.

The Czech-Slovak fairy tale "Three Nuts for Cinderella" directed by Václav Vorlíček has become a beloved Christmas classic in Norway, where it is aired annually on Christmas Eve. The film first appeared on Norwegian television in 1975 and has since become a staple of holiday programming, with significant viewership. In 2021, a Norwegian remake was released, offering a contemporary interpretation of the story. The original film's popularity was evident when viewers protested its removal from the NRK schedule in 1993, leading to its reinstatement. The remake features a new protagonist and setting while maintaining the core narrative, emphasizing the heroine's independence.
