Torsten Lilliecrona

This Christmas special breathes new life into some of Astrid Lindgren's beloved stories. Some, we've seen before, some we've never seen in animated form and some are completely new. Centering around a mysterious cuckoo clock, this film brings us into the worlds of Emil, Brenda Brave and Nils Karlsson Pyssling among others.

Monika from Stockholm falls in love with Harry, a young man on holiday. When she becomes pregnant they are forced into a marriage, which begins to fall apart soon after they take up residence in a cramped little flat.
