This is a quirky, insightful biopic about the life of an intriguing person - writer and artist/cartoonist Tove Jansson. I was a fan of the Moomins as a kid - I remember watching the cartoon show on CBBC and so this film appealed to me, as I knew little about the creator. I could certainly understand her wanting a form of escapism from the war, as the characters were invented during WWII it'd seem. The LGBT aspect was also interesting. I thought the main character was portrayed well by Alma Poysti. This is a good film I'd recommend, yes.
