00:30Winter was just around the corner.
00:35And that was the time of year for Moomin to get restless.
00:40Snufkin, wait!
00:48Because this was the time of year for Snufkin
00:51to leave Moominvalley on his yearly trek south.
01:00Good morning, Papa.
01:12That bonfire looks inviting.
01:14Oh, you're up already.
01:16Mm-hmm.
01:17We were buried in leaves this morning after that wind last night.
01:21Yes, winter's on the way.
01:23Oh, this is a lovely bonfire.
01:26Yes, isn't it?
01:29I guess we're hibernating again this winter, are we, Moominpapa?
01:33Mm, well, of course.
01:35We always hibernate in the winter.
01:38If Snufkin says I could go with him, couldn't I give this winter a miss and hibernate longer
01:42next year?
01:43Marge.
01:44Oh, please, Moominpapa.
01:47Snufkin would rather go alone, I think, Moomin.
01:50But I might get him to change his mind.
01:53But Snufkin's not really a person who likes to be pressed.
01:56Why not?
01:58Well, he's a very solitary person.
02:01His winter trip is the only time he can really be alone for a while.
02:05I know, but I was just hoping.
02:08Snufkin likes you very much, I know that.
02:10And I think that's why he stays in Moominvalley for the rest of the year.
02:14But at heart, he's a vagabond and he needs time away from us.
02:19He's not a family man, so he's free to do as he wants.
02:23And as his friend, you should try to understand.
02:26I know you'd like to go with him, but I don't think it'd be such a good idea.
02:30He'd really hate to turn you down, I know.
02:32I guess.
02:34But he'd have to.
02:37Oh...
02:47Oh!
02:49Oh...
02:51Why aren't they biting?
02:53I haven't had a proper catch for days.
02:56Getting too cold, is it?
02:58Hmm.
03:00When are you leaving?
03:02Huh?
03:03You're about to leave, aren't you?
03:05Yes.
03:11Could I ask you something?
03:13What?
03:15Don't go without telling me.
03:17But why?
03:19I'm always sad when you leave, even though I know you'll return in the spring.
03:23Yeah. Me too, sort of.
03:26That's why this year I'd plan to leave without saying anything.
03:29But it makes me even sadder if I can't say goodbye properly.
03:33I'd like to wish you good luck and all that.
03:35I miss you so much when you're away.
03:37Please, Snufkin.
03:40Moomin, I have a better idea.
03:42I won't leave until after you've started hibernating.
03:44Then you won't miss me, will you?
03:46You're right. That's a great idea, Snufkin.
03:49Then we wouldn't really part at all, would we?
03:51Nope, because I promise to be back here in Moominvalley before you've even woken up.
03:56Wonderful! What a super idea!
04:03Hey, Moomin!
04:06Oh, Sniff.
04:08Moomin, come here a minute. There's something funny caught up in a tree.
04:12What do you mean, funny?
04:14I don't know exactly. Never saw anything like it before.
04:17Snorkmane and Little My found it first, but it's too high to get it down.
04:21Okay, I'll come have a look.
04:28Be careful!
04:31Careful! What is it, Moomin?
04:38I know what it is. It's a kite.
04:40A what?
04:42A kite is something you fly in the sky.
04:44But it has no wings.
04:46No, you send it up against the wind on a string.
04:54Careful, Moomin!
04:56Just a little bit more.
04:58More!
05:20Way to go!
05:24I'll throw it down.
05:26It's all right!
05:33Hey!
05:37So, this is what a kite looks like.
05:40Looks broken to me.
05:42I'm sure we can fix it and make it fly.
05:45Let's see.
05:46Oh, no. The string must have broken when someone was flying it,
05:49and the wind blew it down into the tree.
05:51Well, why don't we repair it?
05:53Yes, let's.
05:54Looks pretty badly broken to me.
05:56Well, I don't know. We'll have to see.
06:02It is a kite, isn't it?
06:04Can we mend it?
06:06Maybe.
06:11A very odd kite.
06:13It must have come from far away.
06:16You think it can be repaired?
06:18Of course.
06:19Well, come on, then, Snork. We'll help you repair it.
06:22We can repair it without your help,
06:24as long as you can find us some really long string.
06:27Strong, but not too thick, if possible.
06:30I think I have what you need. Some string.
06:33Good. Excellent.
06:35I'll start immediately.
07:22Ha-ha-ha-ha!
07:38This is a really exciting project.
07:40I haven't flown a kite for years.
07:43I do hope that string is long enough.
07:46Snork, is this okay?
07:48Fine. Who's gonna fly it?
07:50I'll do it.
07:51Okay, Sniff.
07:53Moomin, hold the kite up high.
07:55Like this?
07:57All right, Sniff. Are you ready?
07:59Yep, I'm ready.
08:01Don't let go till I say when.
08:07When, Moomin!
08:11Whoa!
08:15Uh-oh, it's fallen.
08:17Try again, and this time start running,
08:20and when the wind catches the kite,
08:22you start playing out the line.
08:24All right, fine. Hold it up again, Moomin.
08:27Right. Ready?
08:30Yep, I'm ready. Let go of it.
08:33Is it going up yet?
08:38No, it isn't.
08:40Stop, Sniff! You're breaking the kite.
08:43I don't think this kite's any good for anybody.
08:47The kite's fine. It's just that the wind is too weak.
08:51You're right. We'll have to wait for it to get stronger.
08:54Pity, though. We certainly had a good strong wind yesterday.
08:58Is it okay?
09:00I think the wind is getting stronger, Moomin.
09:13Whoa!
09:18There it goes!
09:26Let me hold the string, Moomin.
09:31Boy, this wind is really strong. Can I let out the string now?
09:35Do it slowly, Mime.
09:37All right.
09:41Let me do it, Sniff. Come on, it's my turn.
09:44I'm afraid you can't, little boy.
09:46Why not?
09:48Because you don't weigh enough to hold it.
09:50I'm very strong!
09:52Moomin's quite right. You go up with it.
10:02Ahem, Sniff.
10:04Yes, Papa?
10:06Do you think I could hold it for a while?
10:08Well...
10:10Yes, you'd like that.
10:12Hold it really tight, then.
10:17Oh, I could do this long before he was born.
10:20Oops.
10:24Oh, what's happening?
10:28Papa, wind it up quickly!
10:30Yes, I'm winding, I'm winding.
10:33Faster, wind it faster!
10:35Whoa!
10:40Oh!
10:46That was definitely not my fault.
10:49Of course it wasn't.
10:51With such a strong wind up there,
10:53I think we have to lower the center of gravity a bit.
10:59The kite's all right, Papa.
11:01Hmm, maybe it would take me with it.
11:17That's it.
11:19I suppose that's to stop it from spinning around, is it, Snork?
11:22Yes, that's right.
11:24Hmm.
11:31What is it?
11:33Huh?
11:35Listen, I'm going to ride that kite.
11:37What did you say?
11:39Shh!
11:41I think it's going to be okay now.
11:43If I hold on really tight,
11:45I think I could have a wonderful ride on that kite.
11:48Yes, maybe it would be wonderful while you're up in the sky,
11:51but you've seen how fast it can come down again.
11:53But the Snork just said it won't fall down again.
11:56Even so!
11:58I'm going to do it, but no one must see me
12:00or they might try to stop me if they guess what I'm up to.
12:03Oh, please don't do it.
12:05Shh!
12:07What are you doing?
12:09Listen carefully.
12:11Yes?
12:13Huh?
12:15What are you two whispering about?
12:17We weren't, Snork Maiden.
12:19I was just saying to Sniff that the kite wouldn't fall down again.
12:22It won't. Snork has fixed it.
12:24But you can't be absolutely sure.
12:26And you'll be holding the kite, won't you, Sniff?
12:28Me?
12:30Now then, do you want to do it, Moomin?
12:32Yes, and this time I'll let out all the line.
12:35And, Sniff, you can hold it up, okay?
12:37Yes, that's fine.
12:39No!
12:41Thank you, Sniff.
12:43And so am I, Sniff.
12:54Are you sure you'll be all right?
12:56Of course I will, silly.
12:58Well, I'm not so sure.
13:00Why don't you keep your eyes closed, then?
13:02Good idea.
13:04Okay, Sniff, let go of it when I say ready.
13:07All right.
13:11Ready!
13:42Yeah!
13:48Yoo-hoo!
13:50That's it. That's all of the line.
13:53It's very high.
13:55Must be some wind up there.
13:57It's flying really well, isn't it?
13:59Certainly is.
14:04This is getting bumpy.
14:11What's that?
14:13I'd say there's something very strange happening on that kite.
14:16What is it?
14:18I can't see properly from here.
14:20I saw something.
14:22Could it be a bird, maybe?
14:24The kite has turned again.
14:26But it wasn't a bird.
14:28Or a twig or something, then.
14:30Can't you see the back of the kite from where you are, Sniff?
14:33No, Moominmama, because my eyes are closed.
14:35Oh?
14:37I think I know who it is.
14:39What?
14:44Oh, no, I haven't seen Little My for a while.
14:47She seems to have disappeared.
14:49Don't ask me anything. I know nothing at all about it.
14:52Sniff, what do you mean?
14:54She was dead set on riding the kite.
14:56I couldn't stop her.
14:58What?
15:00Moomin, bring it down very slowly.
15:02Oh.
15:10Take it easy, Moomin.
15:12That wind is strong.
15:14It could break the line.
15:16But that was one of Grandma's best strings.
15:19It's the knot I'm worried about.
15:21What knot?
15:23The one between our line and the bit that was still hanging from the kite when we found it.
15:27The line is fine, but the knot is another matter.
15:32Oh, my hat.
15:34Oh, dear.
15:36Oh.
15:38Help! Help! Help!
15:50Hang on tight, Little My.
15:52That wind, it's getting stronger.
15:55Oh, this is more scarier than I thought.
16:01I'll just have to hang on as best as I can.
16:06Don't move around so much.
16:08I can't help it.
16:10It's almost down.
16:13What?
16:15Oh, God, it opened.
16:17Come on.
16:19Sniff, get a move on.
16:21Snork, pull yourself together.
16:23Yes, all right.
16:28Oh, no!
16:30Oh, no!
16:32Oh, no!
16:34Oh, no!
16:36Oh, no!
16:38Oh, no!
16:40Oh, no!
16:42Oh, no!
16:45She's being blown away towards Lonely Mountains.
16:48Mama!
16:50Oh, I do hope Little My really is indestructible.
17:02Where in the world is this kite taking me?
17:07Oh, Lonely Mountains, I'm a long way from home.
17:12Little My! Little My!
17:15Now she's going towards the Forest of Witches.
17:17She'd be all right if she fell into a tree, wouldn't she?
17:22I can't see her. There's no sign of her.
17:24Well, I'm almost sure she was heading this way.
17:30What is it, Sniff?
17:32Imagine she might have fallen somewhere.
17:34She might be lying there waiting for help.
17:36Oh, stop imagining things, Sniff.
17:39She's still up there. I'm sure of it.
17:43Huh?
17:44What is it, Papa?
17:45I saw something up there.
17:47Little My?
17:48No, Sniff.
17:50No, it looked more like the Hobgoblin riding his panther through the sky.
17:54Really?
17:56Did you see that? Did you?
17:58You found Little My.
18:02No, the Hobgoblin.
18:04Then it was him.
18:05Forget the Hobgoblin.
18:06We're looking for Little My and all you can think of is the Hobgoblin.
18:19Oh, come on. Why won't you live?
18:37Huh?
18:40Ow! Stop it! You're hurting me!
18:43Let go of my hair!
18:57Where could she be?
19:00This is no good. We'll never find her wandering about like this.
19:05Moomin! Over here!
19:07You found her?
19:12There she is.
19:21Try to cheer up, Snorkmaiden.
19:23I'll try.
19:24Don't worry, Snorkmaiden. Moominpapa will find her for sure.
19:28Huh?
19:30Mama! Snorkmaiden!
19:34Little My!
19:41I'm so glad to see you.
19:43But I just knew you'd be all right.
19:46Like Moominmama said, Little My really is indestructible.
19:51But just possibly, it served her right to have her hair pulled.
20:00There's still no sign of Little My?
20:02No.
20:09Be careful, Moomin!
20:17Toon!
20:23Hang on, Moomin!
20:25Help me, Moominpapa!
20:30Help me, Moominpapa!
20:32Finally, Moomin was rescued too.
20:35But he almost certainly had a far worse scare than Little My.
