"The birth of Nukufilm studio in 1957 marked the dawn of Estonian animation, largely attributed to Elbert Tuganov, whose debut film, „Little Peter’s Dream“, brought Nukufilm to international attention. In spite of numerous hurdles, the studio has endured as the oldest surviving stop-motion organisation in the world, outlasting even those that perished following the Soviet Union’s disintegration.

Filmmaker Nikalas Catlow delves into the history of this remarkable facility and its key role in the development of stop-motion animated films. A thoughtful, compelling, and detailed look at the process of stop-motion animation. "
