At the far end of the gulf of Finland lay Tove Jansson's summer island of Klovharun. In this film we get to meet her on her island and hear her tell the background story of the world of Moomin, populated with Fillyjonks, Miffles, moomins and the ill-tempered Little My.

Tove and Tooti in Europe is a documentary charting the voyages through Europe of author Tove Jansson and graphic artist Tuulikki Pietilä. It is a lyrical and sometimes hilarious film essay on the "old Europe”, experienced by travellers and observers, of times when people used to wander, share a joke, pause and, sometimes, even stop. The film takes us to Paris, Venice, London, Madrid and Dublin; Iceland, Ireland and Corsica.
