As a finnish young adult, I never thought that Moomin had this big of an international audience. Literally brings tears to my eyes seeing so many people love the thing that I and almost all other finnish kids grew up with :')

[somecadejos]

I’ve learned a good amount about Tove, enough for her to become a role model for me, both as an artist and a person. It’ll be so nice to watch and learn more about her and her wonderful creations.

Seeing miss jansson swimming in the sea just. Makes me so emotional

[aapokorhonen]

I would love to see a sequel to this in the future were Tove meets her true partner Tuulikki Pietilä and show how Tove made her Moomin comic strips and other books and how Tove traveled to Japan to see the Teaser trailer for Tanoshii Mumin Ikka

[nyssarc]

Oh man im gonna need to see this, , , i'd love to learn more about Tove

[sonias]

Now that I think about her life, it's strange that it took so long for someone to make a movie of it

[Tiina_Talvikki]

I am crying. Not because I loved the trailer and am so excited about the movie, but because I read so many amazing comments. As a Finnish girl, Moomins have always been important to me, but I get so emotional to see so many people from around the world to feel the same❤️

[pamelasheenamaiasauratiger]

Oh, this!!! I wanna see it! I am American, but my father worked internationally, and I grew up with the Moomin books, along with a whole lot of other books and things American kids didn't grow up with. I love Moomins <3

[francesleones]

I hope this will be released in the Philippines. I would love to see this.

[ezra]

Som en finlandssvensk gör de mig så stolt att se Tove och Mumin ha en så stor skara beundrare :')

[jokerrfox]

I'm happy this trailer came out during pride month ☺️

[princessthyemis]

OH MY GOSH YES!!! I'm so happy they're making a movie about her! She influenced SOOO MUCH! It's really a shame Moomin Valley never got popular here in the U.S, because it's really wonderful, and she was so creative and artistic!

[Deathshuck]

I visited the Moomin Museum in Tampere, Finland where you get to see the original props and drawings up close. They're absolutely incredible.

[dailyhappiness]

Oh my yessss, please! I love Tove, she had such a beautiful artistic soul, her life was like a poetry, bizzare but wonderful, I'm so glad there's gonna be a movie about her wonderful life! Can't wait!

[davidkasquare]

The actress playing Tove is the voice for bus and tram stops in the Helsinki Region Traffic vehicles.

[icecreamwasabi]

I love this, I would definitely see this.

[PleiadesNebula]

Been her fan for ages, mainly due to her adult fiction books and her art. Read her biography some years ago, she lived quite a multifaceted life. You can't put a tag on her, she is just Tove.

[Ennekeli]

Somehow it played without a sound and I still teared up while watching the trailer — that’s how touching it was. Amazing, can’t wait to watch it. Tove is a big inspiration in my life and definitely a role model — looking forward for this masterpiece

[ammesota]

It's weird to see so many international people love Moomin, haha. Moomin was something I grew up on in Finland and I visited Moomin land so many times and I have such good memories around it. I remember watching Swedish Moomins in Swedish classes in school and those where the only times I could concentrate at all, haha.
I'm so going to go watch this movie as soon as I can!

[WafflesXXD]

i got to write about her for a visual arts assignment recently, so i’m super excited to see her story through a new perspective (film)! 💕
