Three Jolly Fellows (Mouseride)

An experienced and worldly Mossbeard, a cheerful and active Muffie and unpractical professor Halfshoe get to know one another while queueing up for icecream. They are all lonely: Muffie sends letter to himself, Halfshoes only companion is a little mouse. They decide to go on a journey together. The city is plagued by an army of homeless cats. Byusing Halfshoes mouse as a bait the cats are led to the forest and imprisoned on a lonely island.

The three jolly fellows have done a favour and the municipal authorities thank them. But the cats are soon replaced by rats. They invade the whole city and the city dwellers have to flee their homes. Now the three jolly fellows have to return the cats into the city and to save it from ruin. Through the memorable adventures of the three jolly fellows the film tells us about the natural balance of things, the harmony reigning in nature and human relationships.

The film is based on a book of the same title by an Estonian leading children`s writer Eno Raud (1972-1979) which is entered on the honorary list of Hans Christian Andersen award.
