Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to examine selected Estonian animated films of the 1980s as wider cultural signs of the Soviet era in Estonia, using the methodological aid of generative terms borrowed from the interdisciplinary research field of post-colonialism. The examples here are one of Priit Pärn's most celebrated films, 'Luncheon on the Gras' (1987), and Rein Raamat's 'Big Tõll' (1980, artist Jüri Arrak) - animated films with a serious political undertone.
