Karla von Bengston (Denmark 2010)
Maj lives with her uncle Sonny and loves to sit with him when he “draws” on the tough women and hard-boiled men who frequent his tattoo shop. One day, a particularly large and scary customer dozes off and Maj ends up tattooing all over his huge back with her childish designs. Fearing the man's rage, Sonny and Maj make a hasty escape on Sonny's motorcycle—the start of an exciting adventure where they discover a magic forest filled with fairies and sprites, a circus mother and her son and a man-eating tiger named Brutalis.
