MARTIN KRPAN - THE MOUNTAIN HERO cover image
Wow! This is an impressive piece of stop-action animation created with LEGOs.

Made by a 13-year-old, the story is about a legendary Slovenian folk hero, Krpan, who stands up to authority and protects ordinary people.

Stop-motion animation is laborious and time consuming and the patience of this young filmmaker is to be admired as the end result is a smooth flowing film. The camera work is clear; the audio recording is clear; the editing is smooth. I love how a traditional folk hero is projected as a super hero in this film.

I give Martin Krpan - The Mountain Hero 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!

This is a father and son project! A 13-yr old brought the animation and creative ideas into life in his playing room!

A legendary Slovenian folk hero comes to life in a LEGO stop-motion world.

Krpan is a powerful mountain hero who stands up to authority and protects ordinary people.

This playful, Minecraft-inspired adaptation blends traditional folklore with modern animation to introduce a timeless character to international audiences.
