Snøvsen

Oct 2 1992 N/A 1h 29m
Family, Fantasy

The Snooks (singular!) derives his name from the Danish expression "leaving the Snooks behind" much used by 7-year-old Eigil's parents to indicate somebody's going nuts. This being a live action-cum-puppet animation film, Eigil's own imagination turns the Snooks into an amiable gnome-like little fellow and best friend during a summer holiday. When they are being joined by a cat, the fun really begins.

Plot

Eigil, a boy of seven years old, lives with his father, mother and little sister on a farm. When Uncle Otto visits and his father starts speaking to him in proverbs, Eigil wonders what's going on. What is a flurry for instance? Eigil wonders what it might look like. To his big surprise, the next day he meets one, a creature with one leg and one toe. He decides never to get rid of it.
