Been on a nostalgic cartoon kick lately re-watching some of the old both Chinese and Western ones I enjoyed. But I never watched any Soviet cartoons having not grown up in the USSR, but I want to! Can anyone make any recommendations? Especially if it has animal characters because that’s kind of my jam.
its kinda like Soviet tom and jerry with a wolf and rabbit
I remember someone from a post-soviet country showing me Hedgehog in the Fog and being like “That’s what a Soviet childhood looked like! We only had depressive entertainment! Traumatic!” (they were born many years after the USSR collapsed lol) I personally think it’s interesting, albeit dark in some places, though the artistic medium is definitely worth a shot, as it had many interesting effects such as the segment with the tree.
Thank you!
And speaking of recommendations, I heard the Soviet Treasure Island cartoon from 1988 is pretty good. Didn’t watch it myself yet.
Thank you so much!
Here it is full and subtitled. Step aside Kubrick, this is what true kino looks like.
