Biography
"There once was a girl named Dashka,
Whose path took some turns, kind of shock-ah,
She started with math,
But left for art's path,
And now she's a director, just rock-ah!
From Moscow to St. Petersburg,
She studied art that was rather big-ger,
Then animation called,
So she applied and enthralled,
And now she directs like a pro-figure!
In Tallinn she finished her degree,
A director in animation, yippee,
She worked on shorts and ads,
And projects that weren't bad,
Now she's living the dream, you see!"
(b. 1993)
Student @ Estonian Art Academy

Biography
Rebeka Kruus is an animation artist, who weaves everyday situations into magical realism. She is drawn to the contradictory human experience that acknowledges both quiet love and comedic tragedy. She aspires to tell stories where characters may take the form of frogs and monkeys, yet resonate on a relatable level. Apart from The Juggler’s Guide, her last work from 2023, she worked on A story about a monkey, a bear and a caterpillar (2023) as co-director and animator.
