What does a theatre director, an author of children’s books, and a philosopher have in common? Well, they might just all be drawing their inspiration from Moominvalley. In fact, imagine all the people around the world influenced by the gentle Moomins, the hysterically dutiful Fillyjonk, the orderly Hemulens, or the free-spirited Snufkin. Imagine the righteous anger of Little My encouraging one person to take up a worthwhile cause and pushing another to finally tell the stories they always wanted to tell…
This is the third episode of the podcast about the Moomin phenomenon, hosted by actress and comedian Jennifer Saunders. Now is the time to hear people who have been deeply influenced by the Moomins, from London, through Helsinki all the way to Tokyo.
The hugely successful author of children's books Philip Ardagh tells about how he has been influenced by Tove Jansson and her worldviews. Philosopher Sanna Tirkkonen turns it around: her motto is never to become like the nihilistic Muskrat.
And can an entire hospital be inspired by Moomin values and philosophy? Apparently, there is such a place, the children's hospital in Helsinki, which has incorporated Moomin values in every step of taking care of the patients. Listeners will also visit a fruit garden full of instruments, a studio where the tunes of Moominvalley emerge.
