Tove Jansson was an artist but through her Moomin comics, which were published here in the 1950s in the Evening Standard, she gained international fame and prestige. She led a pretty interesting life but there has never been a biopic, until now. The trailer for ‘Tove’ dropped and needless to say, I’m excited to see the film.
The blurb behind the trailer says:
In the midst of her artistic struggles and unconventional personal life, Tove Jansson found worldwide success from an unexpected side project: the creation of the beloved world of the Moomins. TOVE is a captivating drama about the creative energy of an iconic talent and her turbulent search for identity, desire and freedom.
