Three siblings spend their summer with their grandpa on his farm. When they watch the old man carelessly squeeze even the last drop from the chafed udder of his only dairy cow, they set her free. Grandpa packs up the kids and goes looking for the cow. But so does another old man who many years ago did not milk his own cow for a day, which made her udder explode and caused a lactocalypse. The Old Man Movie is the theatrical version of the eponymous web series, and the best (i.e., most twisted) stop-motion film in years.

Oskar Lehemaa, Mikk Mägi
(* 1988 in Estonia) grew up in a dull small town, watching action flicks and making silly short films, which was the perfect escape from reality. Today these passions have become a career, as Oskar infuses his works with a love for genre, from comedy to gory horror. Regardless of the project or genre, there seems to be a common thread—a pinch of humor is always added. Bad Hair (2019), screened at this year’s SLASH, is Oskar’s debut short film as a director. Mikk Mägi director and animator, born 1987 in Tallinn, graduated in Animation from the Estonain Academy of Arts. In 2011 he founded the animation studio BOP!. He is director and writer of the animated short Solstice (2018).
