This magical story is based on the tale Tove Jansson. “The Wizard’s Hat” is a moving story about the summer adventures of the little Moomin Troll, his friends and parents. Moomin Dole was quiet and quiet until the troll dad had this magic hat. He did not want to wear it, but his son liked it.
First, Moomin-troll himself tried on this cute hat and turned into an eared tomboy (it is good that for a while his mother recognized him in this guise), and then he and a friend set up an experiment on a lion cub, turning him into a hedgehog. In a word, friends from the heart cheered. Dad-troll decided it was better to drown the hat in the river. And drowned. Actually, I let it flow. But these hats always come back. close

A three-minute long insight into the life of completely unusual people – a group of pacifists forced into hiding in the cellar of a ruinous house to escape a war tribunal. The difficulties of war are manly endured by the film’s characters. This film, like most of Yufit’s works, shows his love of 1920’s avant garde cinema, which was considered the highest pinnacle in cinematography. The director believes the art of moving pictures was more heartfelt before sound and colour. “The development of technologies is not a particularly positive thing for human existence,” says Yufit. —Arsenals Film Festival close
