Proof that Russians have not forgotten about animation and can produce feature-length animated films at a very decent craftsmanship level. The world of medieval German Hanseatic cities, where Wilhelm Hauff placed his stories, romantic nature, dark witches, it is all beautifully drawn and animated. The creators played with the script, added a number of small jokes, so that for children, the time will fly by like water with a very reasonable running time for the film. I just have to sigh about the issue of g......... globalization - unfortunately, the whole thing strongly resembles American Disney production, not only in terms of artistry but also with sentimental songs that interrupt the storytelling. Overall impression 75%. (2008.08.17)
