Drawn Russian short film for children “Once” was released in 2002 on “Soyuzmultfilm” based on the Yakut folk tale about Torobos and Tysanas. Director and screenwriter Oktyabrina Potapova offered young viewers a story about two inventive hunters who managed to outsmart the aggressive Mogus. The belligerent monster kept all the forest inhabitants at bay, but the taiga brothers managed to put it in its place.
Monster kidnapper
Torobos and Tysanas from an early age are able to get food in the forest – they are trained in different crafts and never return from hunting and fishing without trophies and catch. One from ten meters will get a squirrel in the eye, the other in the dark will see a fish splashing in the lake. The two brothers complemented each other as halves of a single whole, and their wives pleased their husbands with regular additions to the family. To give birth to such breadwinners is the right thing, without a piece of bread their families will not leave.
One day, Torobos and Tysanas were returning from a successful hunt and sat down by the fire to taste the shurpa. They ate, drank, danced, and attracted a forest monster to their feast. Mogas came to the smell of delicious food, grabbed food and was like that.
How to take away meat and fish from an uninvited guest? Shooting at a monster brothers do not dare. They have a cunning plan that should show who the real owner of the taiga is a person or an animal.

The documentary film “Titian” is a small excursion into the life of the famous artist, in the creation of which Olga Zhukova took part. The High Renaissance is the time of Titian, a time of beauty, harmony and humanism. Already the first works of the master caused absolute delight of his contemporaries. Incredibly bright, harmonious and sometimes pagan, his paintings are a unique hymn to love and beauty of the body, a reflection of the human soul, his cloudless happiness and joy of earthly existence. What drove genius to create such masterpieces? Is his life full of wisdom or the influence of the ghostly cold Venice? The film, which brings together Titian’s paintings, may answer these questions. close
