Rare Exports Inc.
Rare Exports Inc. is a Finnish short film directed by Jalmari Helander that was made in 2003. The film is about just before the first snow of winter falls, where professional hunters begin their work hunting, catching and training Father Christmas'. "The long process of tracking, hunting and transforming this king of the forest into a finished product is a time consuming process, but the final outcome is a reason to celebrate."
The film is somewhat of a fantasty film while also being a dark comedy. The intended audience is likely to be of an older nature, eventhough the subject matter is of a childrens character. The form in which this traditional story is told suggests that the creator wanted to reintroduce this character to adults.
The narrative is quick and pacy and allows for the 7 minute film to flow naturally. A relative budget for a short film is clearly used as is shown in the props and effects in the film, however, it is unknown.
The short film went on to spawn a sequel and also be adapted into a full length movie which went on to score succes both commercially and critically winning awards and praise from critics a like.
