Nukitsamees () is a 1981 Estonian musical film directed by Helle Karis, based on the 1920 novel of the same name by Oskar Luts.

==Plot== Brother and sister Kusti and Iti are picking wild strawberries when they are abducted by Metsamoor, a forest witch. Metsamoor lives on a farm with Tölpa and Mõhk, two lazy creatures, and her son. Kusti is forced to perform slave labor around the farm, and Iti is locked in the hut to care for Metsamoor's mischievous son, whom Iti calls "Bumpy" ("Nukitsamees," or "the little horned one" in Estonian), due to the horn-like bumps on his head.
