The Snooks (singular!) derives his name from the Danish expression "leaving the Snooks behind" much used by 7-year-old Eigil's parents to indicate somebody's going nuts. This being a live action-cum-puppet animation film, Eigil's own imagination turns the Snooks into an amiable gnome-like little fellow and best friend during a summer holiday. When they are being joined by a cat, the fun really begins.
In the future, Denmark has been made a nuclear waste dump and the Danish language is banned.

Частная школа-пансионат для подростков полна дерзких мальчишек, не упускающих ни одной возможности противопоставить себя миру взрослых. Смелые дискуссии с учителями на занятиях, достаточно фривольные пикники с девушками из соседней школы, картинки из пэнтхауза на стенах комнат, стычки с местными деревенскими пацанами, бойкот, устроенный учителям за попытку исключить одного из учеников. Но это снаружи. А внутри многие из них — обычные мальчишки, нежные и доверчивые, тоскующие по ласке, вниманию и заботе. Они могут плакать по ночам, вспоминая родителей, обниматься в душе, строить вместе свои маленькие воображаемые миры. И конечно же, они могут влюбляться. Кто-то в девочек. Кто-то в своего друга…

After having been rescued from suicide, a young man is the object of a bet by his doctor that the doctor can help him recover his joy in life. Ironically, the doctor's life is not a very happy one either, and his boast has a hollow sound. For one thing, although he seemingly has a "happy divorce," in which he, his ex-wife and her new husband are all great pals, it's not true. He wants his wife back. All sorts of complications arise out of these lies and distortions.

This is a film about the stuff dreams are made of, yet, there is nothing elevated in this concept, on the contrary. The characters around the bar Strudsen (the ostrich) are doing what ostriches do, hiding themselves from the threats of life and keeping their dreams to themselves. Scriptwriter Benny Andersen being a poet is rendering a loving portrait of a number of persons, who fail to try to make their dreams come true, possibly not being sufficiently dissatisfied with their life after all. The manager would like a bar of his own but dare not admit to it, the butcher would like to be an opera singer, the window cleaner (sorry, window polisher) is secretly in love with the bar lady, but dare not show it and the pianist willingly listens to all the different dreams being presented to him. This film was the best accomplished movie from Henning Carlsen since his debut with 'Sult'.
