Morten is suspended from the class and goes to the riverside to play with a toy boat. He is a 7-year-old boy and puts several insects to act as crew onto his boat. When Morten has manned his ship, a strange cockroach-looking gentleman suddenly appears and hurries on Morten’s toy ship…

Since his childhood, Kaspar Jancis (1975) has been interested in drawing comics and writing stories for which he made illustrations himself. He studied animation under the guidance of Priit Pärn, and has worked for many film and theatre productions as set designer and composer. His debut was Romance (1999), followed by Weitzenberg Street (2002), Marathon (2006) and Crocodile (2009).
