00:00Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba, Ba...
00:19Another, beautiful day has just dawned over Moomin Vilage.
00:24Oh good, it's going to be a sunny day.
00:39Good morning, Mama.
00:43Oh, good morning, Moomin.
00:45Have you seen the sun shining?
00:47Yes, it'll be splendid.
00:48Moominpappa's outside in the garden
00:50looking for pieces of glass to look at the sun.
00:52I'm going out.
01:03Good morning, Papa.
01:04Oh, good morning.
01:05That's an old window pane, isn't it?
01:08There's always a use for things in the end.
01:10What are you going to do with it?
01:12Well, to begin with,
01:13I'm going to need to break the glass
01:15into five or six smaller pieces.
01:17That's easy.
01:18You just have to bang it against something.
01:20No, then you get tiny slivers flying all over
01:23and you step on them.
01:24Wish I had a diamond.
01:26It's tricky.
01:28Your breakfast is on the table, everybody.
01:30Mama, we want to break this into small bits.
01:33How can you do it without getting glass all over?
01:36Your grandma used to have a trick for that.
01:38First she'd put wet paper on both sides.
01:40Then she'd give the pane a good tap with a hammer.
01:43How clever.
01:44Oh, I get it.
01:45All the nasty little bits of glass stick to the wet paper.
01:48Grandmothers are great.
01:49But it isn't so urgent
01:50that you have to do it straight away, is it?
01:53Your mother's right.
01:54Let's have some breakfast first.
01:56Okay.
01:58Hmm, clouds are forming.
02:00Oh, no.
02:01We won't see the eclipse if it's cloudy, will we?
02:04No, I guess not.
02:08Clouds, just go away.
02:10Please.
02:12But will they?
02:13It's the first eclipse in Moominvalley for 30 years.
02:19I'm too excited to eat anymore.
02:21I think I'll go and get some candles, Papa.
02:23Calm down a little, Moomin.
02:25The eclipse won't be until this afternoon,
02:27and I understand they are very punctual.
02:29I know, but I just can't sit still, Mama.
02:32You know, I haven't seen an eclipse for so long
02:35I've forgotten what they look like.
02:37Oh, Papa.
02:38Oh, look at the clouds.
02:43It would be an awful shame
02:46It would be an awful shame if it clouded over
02:49and we couldn't see the eclipse, you know.
02:51Yes, that's true.
02:53Oh, well, if it has to be cloudy,
02:55I'd rather it was now.
03:05Oh, a spell on this horrible cloudy weather.
03:08But you said you'd go out now anyway, didn't you?
03:11Yes, of course.
03:12Witchcraft is at its strongest during an eclipse.
03:15Would it really make very much difference to your spells
03:18if the sun was hidden behind the clouds?
03:20It won't be.
03:21If you say so, but during an eclipse,
03:23the sun is hidden anyway, isn't it?
03:25So what's different about clouds?
03:27What sort of a stupid question is that?
03:29And you plan to be a witch?
03:31Bet you don't even know what causes an eclipse.
03:33The moon, of course.
03:34Very clever.
03:35Excuse me, but what exactly are you going to do
03:38up there on top of the mountain?
03:40I'll call upon the black sun to strengthen my witchcraft,
03:43bringing me mighty power.
03:45Oh, I see.
03:46But do you need to go to all that trouble?
03:48Aren't you already good enough as it is?
03:50Of course I'm good enough.
03:52But, well, you know, just in case.
03:55Time for us for a quick bowl of bat's wing soup.
04:07Some water.
04:09Yes, that ought to do.
04:20Oh, nicely done, Papa.
04:23And now let's wrap up all the small pieces in these.
04:27Shall I light the candle, Papa?
04:39Hey, where is it?
04:40I don't know.
04:41What are you looking for?
04:42The solar eclipse.
04:44The eclipse won't be till this afternoon.
04:46Oh, I knew that, really.
04:48We're making these especially for looking at the sun.
04:51Do I get one?
04:52Of course.
04:53You're a pal.
04:54Thanks.
04:55Here's one more.
04:57If you look at the sun without one, you hurt your eyes.
05:00Eclipses can be dangerous things.
05:02Hmm.
05:03I can't see the sun through it.
05:05Oh, are you sure?
05:06Honest.
05:07This isn't any use at all.
05:09Of course it's no use.
05:11The sun's behind the clouds right now.
05:14Huh?
05:15Oh, I guess you're right.
05:17I hope it won't be cloudy this afternoon.
05:19Why?
05:20Because then we can't see that we can't see the sun?
05:22That's nuts.
05:28The clouds are gathering.
05:30Shouldn't you stay here?
05:31Don't be so silly.
05:32Those clouds will have to be gotten rid of at once.
05:34I've got to go.
05:35There's plenty of magic to be brewed up.
05:41Bye, Grandma.
05:43Bye.
05:49Hooray, she's gone.
05:51Now's my chance to go over and pay a visit to the Moomins at last.
05:55Primitive people used to believe the sun went dark during eclipses
05:59because some enormous evil creature was eating it up.
06:02But how could they believe that seeing as the sun always came out again afterwards?
06:06Yes, well, I told you they were primitive.
06:09What they did was to beat drums and stuff to scare the evil creature
06:12so he'd regurgitate the sun again.
06:14And he always did.
06:19So, are the clouds thinning out at all?
06:21I don't think so.
06:22Oh, dear, I did so hope you'd get to see it.
06:25Oh, don't worry too much about that, Papa.
06:27After all, maybe it'll be nice and sunny for the next one.
06:30Yes, when you're my age.
06:32I'm sad about this.
06:34Oh, anything can still happen.
06:36Well, the wind might just blow the clouds away.
06:44Wind, blow them all away.
06:47I command you to blow even harder.
07:00Oh!
07:03My hat!
07:18Thank you, that's great, Alicia.
07:20Nice to see you, Snufkin.
07:22I love this hat. Have you come to see Moomin?
07:24Yeah.
07:25Boy, what a wind.
07:27It's clearing up a little, though.
07:31You're right, that's good.
07:33Now we'll be able to see the eclipse after all.
08:00Hmm.
08:04Hmm.
08:06Look at that, the sun's getting nibbled away.
08:09Wow!
08:10I don't believe it.
08:16Hey, what are you all doing with those funny-looking things?
08:19Don't you know we're covering our eyes to look at the eclipse?
08:22Yeah, what's that?
08:23When the moon passes in front of the sun.
08:26No!
08:27Can you really see it through that glass?
08:29Oh, yeah.
08:30I want one.
08:31Sorry, we don't have enough.
08:33So what's that you're holding in your hand?
08:36We're keeping this for when Snufkin comes.
08:38Snufkin? Oh, he won't be coming.
08:40I saw him go out fishing in the boat.
08:42Snufkin wouldn't fish with the wind this strong.
08:44That's what you think.
08:46A real fisherman doesn't care what the weather's like.
08:48But you can't fish in the wind like this.
08:53So please, just one little look.
08:55All right, but give it to Snufkin when he comes.
08:58Yeah, okay.
09:00Hey, that's really weird.
09:02Is it really going to get completely dark?
09:05No, I don't think so.
09:07If it got really dark, it'd be super for burglars.
09:12Oh, here comes Snufkin.
09:15And that's Alicia with him.
09:17Snufkin!
09:21Stinky, where...
09:24Hey, Stinky!
09:26Stinky!
09:27I'm borrowing this.
09:28You can have it back after the eclipse.
09:30Oh, I knew it.
09:32Hello there, everybody.
09:34Nice to see you.
09:35Oh, hello, Alicia.
09:36So, has your grandmother let you come to see us?
09:38No, but she's not home.
09:40Here, look through this.
09:41The sun's starting to get smaller.
09:43Stinky was trying to tell me just now
09:45that you'd gone out fishing in the boat.
09:47Not a chance.
09:49Never in a wind like this.
09:51Glad the clouds cleared up, Moominpappa.
09:53Yes, it's nothing short of a miracle.
09:55Almost witchcraft.
10:18All-powerful moon,
10:19consume the sun and steal away his brightness.
10:22And cast your mighty beams down upon myself
10:25to change them and make them strong forever.
10:46That already happened to me once today.
10:48Let's go back in.
10:49We can watch from there.
10:50This wind is too strong.
10:52What about Papa?
10:53Don't worry.
10:54His hat has blown off before,
10:56but he always seems to find it in the end.
11:00Oh, look, it's coming out again.
11:05Good job, too.
11:07I didn't like that darkness much.
11:09It was a bit too scary.
11:21Let's hope it worked.
11:28Oh, yes, I'm sure I can feel the added power.
11:36Yippee, I'm a super witch.
11:47Grandma always gets excited about eclipses.
11:49She says they make her more powerful.
11:51She was really upset earlier today
11:53when she thought the clouds weren't going to go away in time.
11:56So her spells will be even stronger now?
11:58Maybe so strong that her broom will behave itself?
12:01That's what she hopes, but I don't think it's worked yet.
12:04I don't think the sun and moon even know about her,
12:06so why should they help?
12:08Seems a bit strange, isn't it, Snufkin?
12:10Yes.
12:11Yes.
12:18Alicia! Alicia!
12:21Where have you got to?
12:25Alicia! Alicia!
12:33Of course.
12:34Come on, broom. This wind is nothing.
12:37Got to move on, will you?
12:39To Moominhouse to rescue my granddaughters from the Moomins.
12:44Whoa! Whoa!
12:46Hey, watch it, broom! Stop!
12:48Oh! Oh!
12:50I said stop it!
12:52Whoa!
12:53Whoa!
12:54Ah!
12:58Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.
13:00Hmm. Hmm.
13:03Hmm. Hmm.
13:19Gotcha!
13:20Hey, stop it!
13:22Don't do that!
13:24Come on! Show me you're a real witch's broom!
13:28I want to find out what you can do!
13:31Whoa!
13:33Yeah! That's more like it!
13:41Have you ever been in this room before, Alicia?
13:44No, but I think I have looked in through the window once or twice.
13:47Your room isn't very neat.
13:49My, what are you doing here?
13:51Weren't you playing cards downstairs just now with Snorkmaiden and Sniff?
13:55I was, but she's a bad player and Sniff cheats.
13:58Come and have a look.
14:00You can see the bridge through this window.
14:02Oh!
14:03Huh?
14:06What's up?
14:07Ah!
14:08Huh?
14:16Stinky!
14:17On a broom?
14:19A broom?
14:23That's Grandmother's broom he's got!
14:25Huh?
14:27Stinky!
14:28Where did you get that broom from?
14:30In the forest!
14:31Which forest?
14:32I don't know.
14:33Did you just get me off this stupid fence?
14:35I'm going to, but how?
14:37I don't know, but do something quick!
14:39You're going to be sick!
14:40You're going to get a heart attack!
14:42I'll save you!
14:43No!
14:44No, it won't!
14:45I can steer it a little bit, but that's all!
14:48Help!
14:49Let me save you!
14:50I can't hold on much longer!
14:53Stinky!
14:54Got it!
14:55In the room below!
15:06Stinky!
15:07You said you could steer a bit!
15:09Bah-bah!
15:10Well, try to steer under this rope!
15:12What?
15:13And when you're over the bed, jump off!
15:15Okay!
15:16Here I go!
15:18Ah!
15:19Ah!
15:20Ah!
15:21Ah!
15:22Ah!
15:23Ah!
15:27Oh, it's you, Stinky!
15:29Quick, jump off now, Stinky!
15:37Are you all right, Stinky?
15:39Huh?
15:40That's the witch's broom you were riding, wasn't it?
15:43Uh, yes.
15:44So what's happened to her?
15:46She's in a bush in the forest with her legs in the air and a dead faint.
15:49I think she fell off her broom in the wind.
15:51That's awful!
15:52We have to find her!
15:53Show us where she is!
15:59Hurry, Moominpappa!
16:10Come back!
16:11Over there!
16:13Rainbow!
16:15Uh, I'll be going now.
16:18You think she's dead?
16:19No, no, she's just fainted.
16:21We should put her to bed.
16:23What about me?
16:24I'm hurt, too.
16:25Oh, Grandma, speak to me!
16:27Don't worry, Alicia.
16:28Moominmama will know what to do.
16:30See you!
16:31I'm going!
16:46Do you really think my grandmother will be all right now, Moominmama?
16:49Of course!
16:50I'll go and make her some nice broth.
17:02Oh, Grandma.
17:04Is the poor lady still unconscious?
17:06Yes.
17:07I never knew witches could fall off their brooms.
17:10Looks like her eclipse magic wasn't much good.
17:12How's Alicia?
17:13She's still very worried, of course.
17:16Oh, well, at least her grandmother's in safe hands now.
17:21Grandma, you're awake!
17:24Where am I?
17:25Moominhouse!
17:27Moomin!
17:28Moominhouse!
17:33Grandma, look at your back!
17:34You should be in bed!
17:36Whatever happened to me?
17:39My broom!
17:40Where is it?
17:41What have they done with it?
17:42I don't know.
17:43I don't know.
17:44I don't know.
17:45I don't know.
17:46I don't know.
17:47I don't know.
17:48I don't know.
17:49What have they done with it?
17:51It won't come down because your spell is still working.
18:01And now we're going home, Alicia.
18:03Can you move?
18:04Of course I can.
18:07You really must lie still, Grandma.
18:09Witches don't need to.
18:15Of all the rotten things!
18:18Grounded in this of all houses!
18:20With those awful Moomins!
18:22Moominpapa carried you all the way, you know.
18:25Don't.
18:26It's quite embarrassing enough without that as well.
18:29At least they can't make me eat their yucky broth.
18:32Oh, how annoying!
18:35Are you absolutely sure your grandmother doesn't want to eat anything, Alicia?
18:39No, I'm afraid she's still feeling off her food.
18:42But she said it looked delicious.
18:44Oh, well, I'm sure she'll be ready for a bite to eat before long.
18:51I said I don't want to eat!
18:53I said I don't want to eat!
18:55I said I don't want to eat!
18:57I said I don't want to eat!
18:59I said I don't want to eat!
19:01I said I don't want to eat!
19:03I said I don't want to eat!
19:05I don't want to eat and I don't want to drink!
19:07But, Grandma, they only want what's best for you.
19:10Go away!
19:11Perhaps you'd be able to manage a little raspberry juice, though.
19:14Will you all leave me alone?
19:34Oh!
19:48Grandma!
19:49I'm getting out of this horrible place right now and going back home.
19:52Are you better now?
19:54No, but I will be when I get back.
19:56What about me?
19:58Just go back to sleep.
20:01But, uh...
20:07I suppose I ought to thank the Moomins.
20:09You can do it for me, Alicia.
20:11I'm going now.
20:13You have fun with them tomorrow here.
20:15Grandma!
20:17That family is a threat to witchery!
20:30And so, for the first time, Alicia could play with the others without feeling bad about it.
