Manivald (2017)

Tinged with typically absurdist Estonian humour along with Lundgren’s faulty but loveable anthropomorphic characters, Manivald mixes the surreal and heartfelt in fashioning a timely tale about an emotionally unnourished generation that continue to live with their parents well into their adult lives. Manivald pokes fun at the loving but sometimes unhealthy ties that bind parents and children, while celebrating the liberties of independence, self-discovery and growth.

A co-production between the National Film Board of Canada, Adriatic Animation, and Chintis Lundgreni Animatsioonistudio, Manivald is Chintis Lundgren’s sly, quirky and refreshing take on the difficult and delicate bonds between parents and children.
