Eia! I see your business
is doing really well.

I should buy a picture for Sonja
before you run out.

I can give one for Sonja for free.
Which do you like?

Free? But you go to so much trouble.

It's no trouble. I like drawing.

But the frames and everything...
- My dad got the frames.

Is he coming today?

It would be nice to meet your parents.

I like this one, with the seal.

I drew it from a nature calendar.
Actually... Most of them.

But this one with the seal has
a great story. I'll let you read it.

So cool!

I wish I could draw like you.

Sonja!
Give Eia one of your pancakes!

Thank you.

A little donation for your dog fund.
- Thank you!

How was your day?
- I sold twelve pictures!

Even my class teacher bought one.
- So, you did just great.

All the other children
had their parents with them.

I would have wanted to be with you.

But darling, mom and dad go to work.
We cannot just take a day off.

But how can the others?
- I really don't know, I can't imagine.

Everyone helps this school
how they can.

Some go to the fair,
some do something else.

I, for example, was designing the gym.
- But you were not doing it with me.

Get in the car.

Now, with my birthday money
I've got 163 euros and 20 cents.

Is that enough to get a little dog?

You won't get
a proper dog for that money.

But I don't want a fancy show dog.

It just has to be cute.

Listen, darling,
I need to finish this work.

But dear, a dog is not a toy.

You need to take care of it every day.
Feed and take it for a walk...

And you need to go to a dog school.
- But that's what I want.

Someone to be with when you are working.

Darling, come here.

I understand. We haven't had
too much time for you lately.

But tomorrow my annual leave begins.

When the others go on tour,
I'm all yours. How about that?

You promise?
- Yes.

I thought that
we could go on a holiday together.

Somewhere warm.

We can sunbathe and swim.

And there is no snow during Christmas?
- No.

Look.

Maybe we could just go sledging?
We once went, with my class.

It was so great.
- Look!

I'd just like to be home with you.

The first challenge is called love.
Are you ready?

Henry who wanted so much to belong
somewhere where he would be embraced

and who loved fairytales
although he hadn't heard one, yet,

nodded eagerly.

Gerasimov is calling.
- During the best part...!

I'll call him back.
- Bianka has broken her leg.

Does it mean
that mom will not have a holiday?

Darling, don't you worry about that.

There are other ballerinas
who can fill in for Bianka.

Henry's eyes bulged
when he heard what he had to do.

He shook his head.

But Talis and Pets wouldn't stop.

They pushed Henry towards the cows
with their sharp horns.

I understand
what a great chance it is.

That's not the point.
My family needs me at the moment.

Oskar will travel to Singapore tomorrow
to present the designs for the contest.

And I have no place to leave my child.

I don't understand
why you take it for granted...

That I'll solve the situation!
You cancel your trip!

But... Listen...
Why are you shouting at me?

Why can't you just
cancel your trip?

Please, listen.
I cannot postpone this trip.

So, what will we do?
- I think it would be wise to call Ott.

No! Over my dead body!

If you start calling Ott,
then I'll pack my things. I swear.

Don't you think
it's time to bury the hatchet?

Don't you think
that you could be with your child?

Instead of sending her
to an old man she doesn't even know!

Dear Oskar and Lilli!
Congratulations on your baby girl!

I am always there for you.
Ott.

Eia, please get dressed.
We haven't got much time.

Listen, please, talk to me.
- I am not going there.

Would you like to spend Christmas
with an old man you don't even know?

Eia, darling... You are
the dearest thing on earth for me.

I would never send you to a place
where you could feel bad.

Daddy was angry
and said things he didn't really mean.

PHANTOM OWL FOREST

Come here, doggy!

Eia, be careful!

Let's see if we are in the right place.

Come in!

Hi!
- Hello!

Don't be afraid, he doesn't bite.
- Without a reason...

I am so sorry to disturb you
but I think we are lost.

We are going to Ott's place,
Phantom Owl Farm.

You are not so lost, then.
Ott is our neighbour.

You should have turned right
at the crossroad.

But he is not home.

He and Ats went to the forest
to get hay for the roe deer.

But we have dinner at eight,
the guys should be back by then.

You can wait here for the time being.

Thank you.

Can I take a pie?
I am so starving that I could die!

Eia!
- Eia?

Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself.
I'm Lilli. This is my daughter Eia.

Lilli Härma?
- Yes.

Hello, I am Moorits.

Laurits.
- Nice to meet you.

So great to see you in person.
Eia! Let me take a look at you.

So, you've seen my mom on TV.
That doesn't mean that you know us.

Where are your manners?!

Oh my god, I don't believe my eyes!

Welcome!
- Hello.

Lilli.
- Juuli.

My daughter Eia.
- So nice!

Such visitors!

And our kitchen looks like
it's been in a hurricane...

What...

Did you offer them some coffee?
- There was no time...

Oh, you...!

And Ott didn't tell us
that you were coming.

He probably wanted it
to be a surprise.

Ott doesn't even know, yet.
We are such surprise visitors.

It's actually a long and strange story.

Well, it's alright.

The Phantom Owl Farm people
and us are like one family.

Especially when Moorits marries Jete...

It was the beginning
of my annual leave.

The rest of the troupe
was about to go on a European tour.

But only yesterday my double slipped
in front of her house and broke her leg.

Now I must go instead.
And I have no one to leave Eia with.

My plane leaves in five hours.
It all happened so suddenly

that I haven't even spoken to Ott.
He doesn't answer my calls.

Don't you worry about it.
You can leave Eia here.

I'll talk to Ott later.

Ats needs someone
his own age to play with.

He is just wandering
with Ott in the forest.

Ats is our little woodsman...

Stop it!
Or Eia might start thinking...

I didn't tell her anything.
I thought you might want to do it.

I don't understand
why you want to hide it from Eia.

How can I promise something like that?
But what if Eia likes it here?

Hello?

Sure, hang up!
This always solves the problems.

Let's go inside.

He is so cute!
I would love to have a dog.

I have been collecting money
for a year and a half,

but dad says it would not be enough.

Sometimes I think
they say it on purpose

because dad thinks
I'm too little to take care of a dog.

When I look at you next to Lapi
it seems to me that your dad is right.

Eia, come, help me set the table.

Is someone having a birthday today?
- Why do you think that?

Do you eat like this every day,
all together?

But how else?
- Well, I don't know...

In our family we eat
when we have the time.

Mom never eats before the performance.

But just think... When she get's
her stomach full of nice cabbage stew

then in the middle of her finest
pirouette from the stage goes...

Stupid! A ballerina
is not a tractor driver...

A ballerina's fart
is nice and little and gentle...

Or maybe like this...?

Boys!

When will you ever grow up...?
- Don't know...

Evening!
- Good evening!

You came right on time.
Dinner is ready.

Hello.
- Hi!

I am Eia.
I came to visit you.

Eia?

You look exactly how I pictured you.

You pictured me?
- Lilli left you a letter as well.

Come, have a seat.
You can get acquainted later.

This is my seat.
- Ats, dear... You can take daddy's seat.

No, it's alright.
I also like to have my own seat at home.

Bon appetit.

It's the wolves.
- I'm scared.

No, no. Wolves don't attack
humans just like that.

Well, not unless they have rabies...
- But what if they have?

No, they don't.
But you should not be scared.

You see, wolves are like dogs.
They smell fear.

How does fear smell?
- Well, what do you think?

Maybe it smells sweet and lures them?

Whose tracks are these?

This is roe deer.
But look, there went a hare.

Maybe it was running
because of the wolves?

Leaving the smell of fear?
And now the wolves are chasing it?

By morning it will be so hot in here
you can throw away the blanket.

Do you want a lullaby?

Daddy, dear,
let us stay for a while...

Just to play some more...

You miss your mom and dad, yeah?

Get some sleep now.

I could never have believed
that he'd do something like that.

It was my forest...

How could I be so stupid?

I wasted my forest on drinking.

Here. Have some coffee.

It will clear your head.

There is nothing much to do...
Ask for advice from wiser people.

Eia.

Come here. Come on.
Breakfast is waiting.

Hello.

Eia, can you manage
on your own here for a while?

There is an important thing
I have to do in town.

Make yourself at home.

And when you get bored...

In the other room, on the shelves
there are some children's books as well.

Well...?

Is the master home?
- No. He went to town.

Ah, already...

Why do you feed those rodents?

They are just rats with fluffy tails.

Hey!
- Hello.

What are you drawing there?

Can I take a look?
- Yes.

This is so beautiful!

She is so brave.

I have never seen a squirrel so close.

This is our Tähni!
Or one of her babies.

Who are you?
- I am Jete.

Moorits's Jete?
- Moorits's?

No, I mean...
Moorits's and Laurits's... Their friend?

And you must be Eia?
- How did you know?

Good news travels fast.

I am hungry like a wolf!

Me and August left Tallinn at 6.30.

Who is August?
- Laurits's and Moorits's dad.

He goes to the capital once a week.
Takes their goat cheese to the stores.

He always offers me a ride.
Whenever I find some time to get home.

Is this your home?
- My parents' home. My childhood home.

You don't know the half of things, do you?
- I just got here yesterday.

My dad makes the world's best
barley porridge. Just don't tell Moorits.

Oh! Look who's here!

Ats!

Oh my gosh, you have grown!
Soon I won't be able to lift you!

Hello!

You didn't say
you were coming home for Christmas.

What else?
I missed you so much!

Why are you
rubbing your noses like that?

When we were little then my dad said

that the Eskimos
greet each other this way.

Then Jete came up with the idea that it
could be the secret greeting of our clan.

But it's not such a secret anymore.
- I want to try!

Welcome to our secret clan!

Unbelievable!
You gathered all these feathers yourself?

Who else?
- From these woods?

Some are from other woods,
when we traveled with the family.

I don' know anyone
who has such an exciting hobby!

If you want to be an ornithologist,
one must know the birds.

And you want that?

Ott thinks I might be
a great ornithologist.

I know almost all the birds
in our forest by their song.

Awesome!
Can you teach me sometimes?

Ats... Did you find the skates for Eia?
- Here, try these.

If you like her so much,
you better do something.

I will.
- When?

I'm waiting for the right moment.
- You might be waiting forever...

Lilli left a letter for Ott.
That Eia must not be told anything.

So, I don't know...

We also should not tell, then?
- Well, yeah...

I don't know anymore
what we can tell or not...

Where are you going?
- To the forest. To take pictures.

Take me with you!

Are you sure
that you won't get bored or tired

or won't want to go home?
It will be a long hike.

I won't get tired! Or bored!

And sometimes it happens that
you don't see any birds or animals.

You won't be disappointed?

But maybe we will see them?
Just think, if we see some!

You will be cold like that.

Socks.

This should be your size.

Here, wrap yourself up.
- Thanks!

What are we waiting for?
- Hush...

Who are they?
- Otters.

Look!

I've never seen anything so awesome!

I even forgot
I wanted to draw them.

If you want, you can make drawings
out of my photos. - Of course I want!

Usually I make my drawings
out of photos.

I have a calendar at home. Next to
the photo of the seal there is a story

how the seal climbed
on the photographer's lap

like a puppy
and demanded caressing.

It's such a great story,
I have drawn this seal a thousand times.

Really?
This was a really nice seal.

I named him Greedy
because he ate all my sandwiches.

But he kept me warm

when I was
taking photos of other animals.

These were your photos?
- Of course. This is my calendar.

Your calendar?!

Get...!

Get up!

So... I was next...

Eia, your move!
- I'm coming.

Hello!
- Hi!

I don't want to come home just yet.
- No, there is no rush.

I actually came to discuss
something with you all.

Come in, then.

Here, have a taste of our new cheese.

I don't know...
I'm not really hungry.

No, take some...

I don't even know where to start.

To make a long story short...

The court decided
that our tractor driver Pets

must give his forest to Raivo
to pay his debts.

Oh, bloody hell...
- And not just that...

Raivo intends
to cut the forest down this winter.

Ah, we have seen Raivo
and his forest cutting plans...

What happened?

Pets, the tractor driver, had a nice
forest, inherited from his parents.

From here, Millers and Phantom Owl farms
up to Woodcutters Farm.

Now Raivo is the owner and he is
planning to cut down all the trees.

This means that near the river
the forest would be gone.

And the forest would be gone
from behind our orchard.

But what will happen
to all the animals and birds?

Look... We go to the forest
and see - a hawk, a moose.

But when he goes to the forest,
he only sees timber and money

Yeah, exactly...
I spoke with the lawyer.

Raivo had applied
for the tree cutting permission

and probably will get it because
there is no reason to tell him no.

But how did Raivo get
his hands on Pets's forest?

It's obvious.

Pets has a drinking problem.
That's why he lost his job.

When he had no more money,
he went to borrow it from the village.

But no one wants to lend him anything.
He never pays it back.

But Raivo gave him the money.

Lent him money for the booze,
worth the forest? - No, no...

Raivo is a cunning guy.
He made Pets sign a contract.

Pets's overdue charges
just kept growing.

And poor stupid Pets pledged the
contract with his land and forest.

Probably Pets didn't even understand
what he signed. - Well, yes...

But this is the situation.

If we don't come up with a solution fast,
we'll soon be living on an open field.

Listen... What if we bought
this forest from Raivo?

I've been saving for my bakery.
I could use that money.

Come on, Moorits... You've been saving
this money for half of your life.

There must be another way
to save the forest.

See! These are beautiful.
- Yes, you are right...

Well... Which one shall we take?

This one!
- Alright...

So, ask him if he
wants to come with us.

But how?
- Just like you ask from a human.

You cannot just cut down a tree.
You must ask permission first.

I'll ask in my mind.
- Alright. As long as you ask.

Well? What is he saying?

He doesn't want to come.
He wants to grow up.

Listen, let's go and have a look
below the power lines.

They must be cut down anyway
before they reach the lines.

We'll find something there.

Ott... Why does your farm have
such a strange name? Phantom Owl?

Is it because it’s haunted?
- No...

The farm got its name
a very long time ago.

The story goes that a phantom owl
was living in the forest near the farm.

My grandpa said that in the evenings
he’d like to sit on a bench on the hill

and listen to this
phantom owl, as he said.

But now this bird has not been
seen here for the last hundred years.

Well, who wants
to be our Christmas tree?

How beautiful!
We don't have these at home.

I won't get the tinsel out,
we'd just have a mess in the house.

Be careful with them.

Some of these decorations
are from my grandfather's times.

The angel that goes on the top and...
But ok, you'll manage.

I must go outside
and finish some things.

Do you have the angel?
- No.

Maybe it is in the last box
that Ott didn't bring down?

Help me reach it.

What?!
- What is it?

Ott has written these letters
to my father.

Look, they are unopened.
And with the stamp "Refused".

Strange.
There is something suspicious here.

You cannot open other people's letters!

You don't understand!
They are hiding something from me.

"Dear son. Here at Phantom Owl..."

Wait, what? "Dear son"?
- Keep reading.

"Here at Phantom Owl it is springtime.

Yesterday I saw a starling flying out
of the nest box that we built together.

I got 1.5 buckets of birch beer from
this crooked birch behind the sauna.

I'll keep it cold for you.
Still waiting for you to come home."

Well? What happened?
Did you have a quarrel?

Do you hate me?
- Eia, dear, of course not.

Why do you think that?

When you are my grandfather
and you never came to visit me,

what should I think?
- Eia, dear... If you only knew...

From the moment I first saw you,

there hasn't been a single day
when I haven't thought about you.

You saw me? Where?

When the news about your birth
reached me here at Phantom Owl Farm,

I drove to Tallinn at once.

You were three days old,
in the hospital with Lilli.

You were so tiny and wrinkled

but you already had
these big and curious eyes.

I didn't see Oskar.

But I told Lilli that
if you ever need your grandfather,

then I'll be here, waiting for you.
But well... They never called.

But why didn't you come to visit us?

I am pretty sure that your father
doesn't want to see me.

But why?

When I was studying forestry in Tartu,
I met your grandmother Maret.

Well, we were young,
we fell in love and got married.

Came to live here at Phantom Owl Farm.

But time passed and Maret started
missing the city life.

And I spent more time in the forest.

And so, we, like, grew apart.

And then it happened that
I found a new soulmate in Ellen,

who lived alone
on the other side of Beaver Lake.

And after some time
me and Ellen had a daughter, Jete.

Well, after that Maret packed her things,

took our 10-year-old Oskar with her,

told me to forget that I
ever had a son...

And they moved to Tallinn.

To be honest...

I haven't seen your dad after that,
face to face.

But didn't you go to see him?

I wrote him for two years,
one letter every month.

Waited for the answer.
But all the letters came back unopened.

And then I thought that if he didn't
want to talk to me, why should I try...

I think he has never forgiven me
that I wrecked our family like that.

Grandpa...

So...
Gingerbreads, straight from the oven!

First we must glaze the baker!
Wait...

So... Let me see.

You’d look really gallant
with a gray moustache.

It seems that you could age
with some dignity.

We'll see how much dignity
you'll have when you get old.

No...!

Where are you going? Come here!
Come on...!

Wait... Hush, hush...

I hate to interrupt but I smell
something burning in the oven.

Oh, bloody hell...!

My owl!

But when we can't eat it, maybe we
can hang it on the Christmas tree?

Yes! On the tree!
That's where I saw it!

What did you see?
- The owl.

There is no such species
as a simple "owl".

All birds in the order Strigiformes
can be called owls.

What did it look like?

It was big and grayish.

Did it have crested ears?
- I didn't see any crested ears.

I'll give you crested ears...!

I'll make you look like Ott...

Take the cone and...
Crested ears are coming...

Hello?

Hi!

Everything is fine.

We are fine!

Yes, she is...

Eia! The phone!
It's your mom.

Hi, mom!

Yes, merry Christmas to you too!
Where are you?

And when are you coming back?

I want to stay here
for the New Year's Eve.

But you might come here?

No! Dad must come with you!

I don't want any other present!
Please, just come here with dad.

Eia, dear...

I understand that you mean well, but...

I don't want Oskar to come here,
like, he's being blackmailed.

I'd want him to come
of his own free will.

When dad is not coming
you won't be able to make up with him.

And then I'll never be allowed
to come to Phantom Owl again.

So, please, for me...
Try to make up with dad.

Grandpa?
- Yes?

Do you by any chance
have an old picture frame?

I don't know...

But maybe we can
come up with something here...

How about this one?

What do you want it for?
- It's a secret.

The waters are already babbling
when he opens up his eyes.

What a great life the bears have!
They wake up in spring.

The waters are already babbling
when he opens up his eyes.

What a great life the bears have!
They wake up in spring...

Oh, I almost forgot!

Come with me for a second.

Merry Christmas!
- Thanks!

The feather of a great gray owl!
- You don't have one of these, do you?

No! Where did you find it?

On the river bank when we were taking
photos of the otters with Jete.

But this picture I drew of the real bird.
- You saw a great gray owl?! Where?

At the top of the hill,
on a pine tree.

Do you actually understand
what it means?

What, then?

The bird that gave the name
to Ott's farm,

has returned home
after a hundred years!

The great gray owl was called phantom owl
because of its spooky howling.

Really?
- Children, the dinner is getting cold!

You can’t imagine
what a rare find this is.

I haven't been able to see this bird
even on my travels.

But listen!
The great gray owl, Strix nebulosa,

is an endangered bird species in Estonia.

This could be the solution!
- What do you mean?

It is prohibited to cut down forest
that is the habitat of endangered species!

The species that disappeared
and presumably extinct species

was discovered nesting again
in Virumaa County.

Observations of the great gray owl are
handled in the birds rarities committee.

If we have a great gray owl here,
we should notify the Environmental Board.

They'll send a biologist, this rookery
might be taken under protection

and Raivo would lose
his forest cutting permission.

I am afraid that a drawing
and a feather are not enough.

I must catch this bird on camera.

I was thinking that this owl
had taken you to its nest already.

What are you doing here?

Ott said that you were in such a hurry
going after this owl

that you didn't even have breakfast.
And so I thought that...

You are so nice!

You know... Sometimes I wish
I could be more than just nice.

An owl!

Are you sure this is the great gray owl?

I don't know.
If I only could get a better picture...

Jete! Jete?

Can you hear me, Jete?

Jete! Can you hear me?

Jete!

Ouch!
- What is it?

I hope I didn't break my leg...

You shouldn't eat so many pies.
- Ah...! And whose fault is that?

Does it hurt?

When Jete was some years older
than you are now,

these two decided to go to the manor yard
to swing on young birch tops.

And guess who got to wear
a plaster cast for half of the autumn

because of a clavicle fracture?

Did you see the owl?
- Yes we did.

We didn't get the photo, it was so close.
- Yeah...

Why are you laughing?
This is serious!

If you are in plaster again,
who will take the owl picture?

Ok, one drawing and a feather
are not enough

for the environmental board
to send out specialists, but...

Maybe it's enough for a biologist?
- So, you are thinking...?

We write to one and tell the whole story.
Maybe they would come to help us?

Where could we find them?
- On the Internet?

Maybe we can use my dad's computer?

Lapi! You naughty boy!

What bird is that?
- Ah, this is a nuthatch.

Look, what a great climber it is.
It can move on a tree stem upside down.

Let me take a closer look.

Oh gosh, it's so cool!

But there is no sign
of the great gray owl.

There is someone over there.
- Let me see.

Robi.
- Who is Robi?

Raivo's son.
What is going on there?

And these also...
- Please!

You cannot cut down this forest!
A great gray owl lives here.

What do I care about one owl...

The great gray owl is a protected species.

Get lost!

Quickly! Go home!
You disturb the people working.

What owl were they talking about?

This is all just nonsense.

Moorits!
- What is it?

Raivo is already
marking the trees in the forest!

What...?
Oh, this guy...

Wait a second!

Hello, Raivo.

What do you want?

I am interested in that forest
that used to belong to Pets.

Don't you have any homework to do?
- Not during holidays.

I'd pay a proper price.

I am not selling.
This is a valuable forest.

I already got the cutting permission.
We'll start next week.

Maybe you can think about it?
- What is there to think about?

I'd sell it for this price.
Maybe.

This is three times more
than the market price!

And you got it from Pets
for the booze money...

Take it or leave it.
This is what I get for the timber.

What happened to you?

At school we used to look up to you.
- And now what? Looking down?

What birds are you feeding here?
- All kinds of them.

I have bullfinches... Tits.

Even our squirrel
comes around to get a snack.

Eia! Your dad is calling.
- I don't want to talk to him right now.

Come on...! He probably just
wants to wish you happy holidays.

I have every right
to be annoyed with him.

He may be mad at you,
but he can't take my grandpa from me.

Eia!

Tell him that there is
no point for him to call me.

I won't talk to him before he gets here.

If he is so childish and refuses to talk
to his father, why can't I do the same?

Good morning!
- Hello...

Is this Phantom Owl Farm?
- Yes it is.

I am Kaarel!
- Kaarel the environmental biologist?

That's the one!
- Yeah!

You came!
- How could I not!

Hello. I am Ott.
- Kaarel Kase, Environmental Board.

So great!
How did it all happen?

Some little forest lovers
asked me to help.

Oh, alright...!
But let's go inside, first.

This is so nice of you
that you came to help us.

On your free time, during the holidays.

I must admit that my visit
is not as unselfish as it seems.

Actually, I am a great fan of owls.

But I have never met
a great gray owl in nature.

Then we found the right man.

Warm carrot pies.

Because some of us don't eat meat...

If you took photos
of animals and birds all day long,

you couldn't eat them as well.

I understand your wish
to protect the forest,

but these things are not so simple.

The bird you saw
might just be stopping on migration.

But only the bird's nesting area
can be taken under protection.

Does this mean
that we can't do anything?

If we could also find the bird's nest,
we'd have some hope.

But how can we sure that
this owl would keep nesting there?

When great gray owls
have chosen their nesting area,

then they will announce it
to their rivals with a song.

We only have to hope
that the bird opens its beak.

I plan to go looking for this owl
first thing in the morning.

I'll come with you!
I know these forests well.

Jete took the photos
of all these animals and birds.

Shouldn't you be careful with your leg?
- I'm perfectly fine.

I could never forgive myself
if I didn't get a photo of this owl.

Oh... Listen, I should be going.
I must get up early.

What’s the point in driving?

You could stay here. If the
threshing room sofa is alright for you.

Or better come to our house!
We live nearby.

I could show you
my bird feather collection.

You collect feathers?
I'd certainly like to see them.

But let's do this on another day.

I'd stay here for tonight
if you don't mind...

It is good to go straight
to the forest from here with Jete.

Alright,
we should also be going home.

Lapi, come on!

Well, good luck.
- Yeah... See you!

Come here...! Bye!
- Bye!

Goodnight!

Let's hope this bird opens its beak.

I think someone
should also open his beak

if he doesn't want to lose Jete...
- Yeah, yeah...

Do you think that if you follow her
long enough with your pie platter

she'll get butterflies in her stomach?

Well they say the way to one’s heart
is through the stomach.

The way to your mind
is through your stomach...

Pull yourself together! Oh god...!

Even Ats has got
more initiative than you.

Right, Ats?
- Right...

Yeah...

Eia, tell us
where you found this feather.

It was where you
took the photo of the woodpecker.

Let's go there first.

Lapi! Lapi!

Call off your dog, man!

What are you doing
with a rifle on my land?

Oh, it's your land?

I didn't know
where Pets's forest area ended...

What are you hunting, if I may ask?

Well... Raccoon dog... Fox...

My missus wanted a fur collar.

Surely you have a hunting permit?
- No, I am not about to shoot...

I was just... looking around.
- Looking around with a rifle?

Better watch out. If I should
hear a single shot in my forest...

I wouldn't be too
cocky if I were you.

Better to have good relations
with your neighbours.

What do you think?
Was he telling the truth?

Oh, was he...?!

You don't think
he wants to kill the owl?

Well? You haven't got any further?

On the contrary,
we are already coming back.

How did it go?
- Total silence.

I don't know
where this bird is hiding.

Dad... Kaarel wants to know

if there are abandoned goshawk's
or eagle's nests in the neighbourhood.

Great gray owls don't build
their own nests. They use others'.

Where did we see one of these?

When we were taking hay to the roe deer!
Near the feeding place.

But there is one near the clearing.

Right!
On the bog side, next to the strip!

I'll show you! Come!

What traces of birds
are you looking for?

Oh, everything.
Feathers, excrement, sounds.

During the nesting period
the female sits on the nest.

The male bird is feeding her.
Goes hunting over the fields.

And where the male bird is flying
with a mouse, that's where their nest is.

And when the chicks have hatched...

The baby owls are serious ranters.

Their voices will lead you to the nest.

This doesn't help us at the moment.

Well, yeah...

Your hands are cold?
- Yeah.

Do you want to go home?
- No.

Are you sure?

What's that?

Oh, listen...
These are the traces of the owl's talons.

It must have been hunting here.

Oh gosh...
This is a very good sign.

Good girl! I would have
passed it without even noticing.

No wonder...
You have eyes only for Jete.

Ats...!

Alright, I'll take the children home
before they get cold.

Jete, show Kaarel the nests.
One is near the roe deer feeding place

and the other one on the other side of
Beaver Lake. You'll find them. Lapi!

Bye!

The forest is the best drugstore.

I have never taken a pill in my life.

And look at me - healthy as a horse!

Pine needle infusion
is good for tired feet.

And helps cure the common cold.

So good that we gathered them.

Put your legs in.

And was there any use of this freezing?
- Yes.

We saw the bird and the nest.
Near the roe deer feeding place.

Now we just have to hope that
the bird stays on the nest

and finally opens its beak.

But I'll head back to the forest
in the morning.

Show me the pictures!

Oh, how cool!
It really is the great gray owl.

It's painful to see what the people
like Raivo do to the forest.

What else has this Raivo done?

A couple of years ago
we had this situation

when he cut down the forest
in the middle of the nesting season.

I don't want to think about
how many baby birds died.

Dear owl, please open your beak.

Mom!
- Eia!

Hello, darling! How have you been?
- I'm great!

Where is dad?
- Dad is in the car.

Be a good girl, go and say thank you
and goodbye to everyone.

Your things are already in the car.

Eia! Please come.

For my whole life you hid from me
that I have a grandfather!

And now you think that
I'll leave whenever it suits you!

I am not going anywhere!

Eia is refusing to come home.
Please come and do something.

I am not setting foot inside that house.

Oskar! Please be reasonable.
- Reasonable?

I told you from the beginning -
let's not bring her here.

Now you see what trauma
you have caused for the child?

I caused it?!

I have been lying to my child for
ten years because you wanted it.

Eia is a big girl already.
It is not up to you to decide

if she wants to get together
with her grandfather or not!

Your daughter is not an instrument
to punish your dad.

I want to talk to my daughter.

Alone.

Eia.

Please don't be ridiculous.

I only want what's best for you.

So, you think it was best
to take my grandfather from me?

He wasn't much of a dad.

And unfortunately I have no reason
to think he's a great grandfather.

Why not?

At one point he just
stopped caring about me.

Eia, I just don't want you to feel
like I once felt. Come on now.

I want to show you something.

After that, if you still think
I shouldn't have a grandfather

then I'll come home with you.

But I'll be the unhappiest child
you have ever seen.

You might get in trouble
in this blizzard.

Do you really intend
to go back to town tonight?

I won't go anywhere.
Oskar can go alone if he wants.

Please forgive me
for being so angry with you.

It's hard to admit it but I should
have listened to you a long time ago.

So many years wasted...

My mom never told me about dad's letters.

Not even on her death bed.

Eia found a trace in the forest

where the owl had put its head
in the snow while hunting a mouse.

And then me and Ott led them to the nest

and now this poor guy has been
sitting in the forest for days,

waiting for the owl to open its beak.

Now I understand why you
didn't even have time to call me.

Eia, what is it? Why are you not eating?
You don't like the food?

I don't want to go just yet.

Eia...
We were discussing it with mom...

If you really want, we can
stay here for the New Year's Eve.

Really?

Does it mean that I can come back
to Phantom Owl Farm?

If it is alright with Ott.

Yeah!

They are really cutting it down.

The machine is already in the forest.
They'll cut it down!

I'll bring Kaarel from the nest.

You can't cut down this forest!

Animals and birds live here!
Their nests and dens are here!

This forest
should be under protection!

It is home for a bird that
has not been seen in a hundred years.

This is my forest.
I can do here what I want.

What's happening?
- Nothing! You keep working!

Stop it, dad!
Didn't you hear what they said?

Boy, shut your mouth.
Or you'll never work with me again.

Hi!

Hello! Wildlife biologist
Kaarel Kase, Environmental Board.

What's that? Do you know?

What's that, what's that...
What's this howling got to do with me?

It’s got everything to do with you,
the forest you are cutting

is the nesting place
of a protected species

and around the nesting tree
forest cutting is prohibited!

Basically you can only
walk on your toes in this forest!

I haven't received
any official order or prohibition.

And I am not stopping my work
for one lousy bird!

Fortunately we guessed
you might say something like that.

Hereby your tree cutting permit
is revoked.

Pigs!

We are happy to be pigs!
We love animals, unlike you!

Celebrating the return
of the phantom owl...

Moorits presents - the owl buns!

Really? I'll put you on speaker.

Quiet, everyone! It's Kaarel.

Hello! I just wanted to tell you
that the environmental board decided

to protect the great gray owl
nesting place with the feeding area

and to impose a restricted area
of 3 square kilometres.

This means that from now on in this
area no one can cut a single tree!

Thank you, Kaarel!

Have a happy New Year's Eve!

So, everything went well with that...

Come outside, quickly!
Let's light the bonfire!

Thank you so much,
this is just great news!

Yes, exactly.

Yes, you are a real lifesaver.

Ok, yes. Bye.

You like him, don't you?
This Kaarel?

Yes, I like him...

But I know someone
who I like much, much more.

Let's go.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Do you have any room for me?

Tell us, Eia.
What did you wish for the New Year?

I really couldn't wish for anything.
- Oh...?

I was just thankful.
For all that.

What? You don't want a dog anymore?
- I totally forgot about that!

I think that now
when I have such a family,

I might manage
without a dog for some time.
