Priit Tender

This new film by the renowned Estonian animator Priit Tender once again shows the boundlessness of his surreal imagination and his sense of black and absurd humour. The film features a nest box, an apple tree, a snake, an alcoholic penguin and vanishing birds. But, on a different level, the film deals with the issues of roots, and being uprooted.

This film is based on a long-term study of the dreams of chimney sweepers. The most frequently encountered images have been selected from the abundant material available and the script was created on the basis of those images. Statistics support the claim that this film presents one of the dreams that chimney sweepers encounter most frequently.
