Let's make this birthday one to remember.

83 years old (Born on March 24, 1942)

Happy Birthday, Kalle! From shaking up consumer culture to giving bears their cinematic close-up, you've always known how to make a statement. Your groundbreaking documentaries like "Bears and Man" and "The Autumn Rain: Crime in Japan" didn't just win awards—they made us rethink our world (and occasionally check under the bed for corporate villains).

Your fearless activism continues inspiring generations—reminding us that business suits aren't superhero capes. Here's hoping your birthday is as legendary as your films, filled with laughter louder than capitalism's fall and cake sweeter than victory over consumerism.

Cheers to you—keep stirring things up!
