Tove

Normally, biographical films are not too cheerful, but rather conservative, this movie is an exemption from the rule.

Tove is an artist who wants to go further beyond the restrictions provided to her by society. So, she does not follow the "norms" which would be allowed her to get a grant and approval from her own father, who was an artist too. Therefore, she barely survives economically having trouble even paying rent.

However, she has spiritual strength for doesn't give up, and step by step she creates a whole world of Moomin.

Thanks to a chance she was able to open an exhibition of her Muumilaakso heroes and get recognition.

The conclusion: Tove was able to survive and bring to the children and adults her passion, but how about other artists?

Thousands of artists apply for a grant to cover their basic cost of living and only 10% of them get the help ( Finland, the year 2018). Therefore, 90 % of the artists left without any financial support are forced to give up on their passion and go to a brutal job to cover basic bills.

And how many of them are capable to survive?

Any economically developed society must recognize the value of Art and Creativity. Besides traditional museums, Houses of Emerging Artists must be established in each capital city, where they can exhibit their art in tangible or digital formats.

That will bring great visibility and value of Art into Society attracting investors, partners, and ordinary people uplifting society as a whole.
