Summary/Abstract: Priit Pärn’s piercing irony, black humour and razorsharp comments on reality have turned Estonian animation films into a shining star in the once gloomy cinema landscape of Eastern Europe. Pärn is also an artist who, in the 1990s, was not afraid to engage in an affair with the world of advertising. As a matter of fact, by doing so, he encouraged and paved the way for many young Estonians today, who are now able to acquire funding and engage in international co-productions.
