In Rosa and the Stone Troll /Roselil og stentrolden, Rosa is an adorable flower fairy who plays by the rules in her brightly colored, Marimekko-inspired world, where she happily gets by in her little rosebush. She’s also eager to spread her wings, but while she dreams of having a friend, going farther afield can be a little scary — and traversing Summerland would be a very tall order! But when she makes friends with the butterfly Silk, they hit it off immediately, even though Silk is as cheeky and curious as Rosa is timid and cautious. So when Silk is kidnapped by an evil Stone Troll, Rosa has to let go of her fears and set out on a dangerous journey to save her new best friend. (75 min. Ages 6+ | Dir.
