About Pigtail and Mr. Sleeplessness
Pigtail loves the winter holidays, but this year, shortly before Christmas, Brother comes into the world, turning everything upside down. Grandmother arrives from the countryside, because Pigtail’s parents no longer have time to take her skating, but Pigtail and her best friend, Mr. Sleeplessness, don’t like the new order. They come up with a plan – to send Brother and Grandmother to the Moon, in a bid to reclaim parental attention.
Directed by Edmunds Jansons, Pigtail and Mr. Sleeplessness leans on a strong ensemble — Nora Guuma, Makss Kadeģis, Guna Zariņa — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 2017.
