In the middle of a forest an old forest ranger lives in peace with the other forest animals. One day a hunter arrives and the ranger stages a sham to trick him and save the animals with the help of the Animal Resque Squad. Made using puppet animation, a solid tradition in eastern European filmmaking, this engaging film lets the viewer see the world from a child’s perspective.
Janis Cimermanis (b. 1950, Latvia) graduated from the Leningrad Institute of Theater, Music and Cinema before working as director at the Latvian Puppet Theater. In 1993 he founded Animacijas Brigade, an indie company through which he produces animated films. His film credits include The Live Friend, The Way, Karu Tuleb, Three Musketeers.
«The old forest-guard lives […] in full harmony with all the animals living around. When news arrives that hunters are going to have his friendsanimals hunted, the situation appears hopeless. But there is somebody who can help».
