I’m looking for a **live-action children’s movie** which was surely released **before 2010** and possibly even before 2000. It centers around a **young boy** who has a strong bond with an adult female, likely his mother. He ponders about traveling the world. His father is not around. At one point he’s sitting in a small bedroom in a **wooden beach house** where he browses through a book with black and white pictures of a pilot. The woman points out that it’s his father. At some point, the boy watches over a stretched out plain of dunes, with a docked **giant old ship** in the distance. A woman is walking nude over those dunes. It’s literally a vague scene, so it could’ve been a dream. One of the last scenes is at the inside of a tall **old library** with musty books, where an old man gives the boy a tour and takes him to his office where he talks some more. His office has a **giant old globe** in it. The movie is probably **Scandinavian**.

It’s not Pelle The Conqueror (1987), Mio, Min Mio (1987) or My Friend Flicka (1943).

Lots of thanks in advance to everyone who tries to help!
