A careless mother is going on a date with another fan and, in order to brighten up her daughter's loneliness, leaves her alone with a pink doll - the same doll that "wanders around the city and why it is vain to destroy little children". The girl considers the doll to be very realistic, therefore she associates it with herself, and herself with her mother. So begin the serious experiences of a girl who understands that this doll bought off her. At night, the girl dreams a terrible dream in which the doll embodies all her fears...
"Pink Doll" creates the illusion of a spellbound fall into the abyss of children's dreams, fantasies and nightmares. The sensual effect is achieved by the game of scale and angle, the nervous rhythm of intraframe movement and graphic thickening of reality. close

Cartoon for adults “Threads” – about what connects us with each other. This animated parable tells about threads between people in the language of allegory. Meetings and farewells, sorrows and joys, indifference and affection - each creature keeps the other in bondage. They are stretched, then weakened, ties are strengthened, then torn. For someone, a thread is support and support, and for someone – a chain that does not allow you to take off.
About the fragility of relationships in allegorical form said poets and artists, singers and dancers. And in 1996, the cartoon “Threads” was made by screenwriter and director Ivan Maksimov. He deliberately did not specify who he was talking about. We will not see animals or people in painted pictures. But in the characters of the six-minute animated short you can recognize both. In the center of the plot of the cartoon “Threads” is the story of the feelings of all lovers in the world. It's very hard to find someone to pick up your string. And it hurts when they let her go...
Look from the side
The cartoonist Ivan Maksimov is often criticized for the “wrong” drawing. Instead of a dog or a girl, he paints shapeless amoebas, which he manages to endow with individual characters. But the artist is not going to change his handwriting: he suffered his fine technique in a long search. Having come to the cartoon, I wanted it to be funny and beautiful. But soon I realized that beautiful is not funny. It is not perfect lines that entertain, but defective forms. If you want the viewer to smile, the image must be primitive. Hence – and recognizable Maximov’s “amoebas”: on the face terrible, kind inside.
About the author of the picture
Ivan Maksimov – “man-orchestra”: director, screenwriter, cameraman, clipmaker, advertiser and artist. And in the first profession, this polyphonic author is also a physicist. And hereditary. His father, physicist Maksimov Leonid Alexandrovich, is a famous scientist, corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Maximov-son also followed in the footsteps of his father: he studied in physics and worked at the Institute of Space Research, and before MIPT he worked at the Institute of Biophysics of the Academy of Medical Sciences. Then he changed his life and went to the Higher courses of directors and screenwriters. Since childhood, he drew and therefore without problems mastered the profession of animator. The director-animator was the daughter of Ivan Maksimov Ekaterina Bim. On their joint account - more than a dozen animated shorts. And among the victories of Ivan Maksimov - the prize "Nika" for the cartoon 1993 "Bolero" and seven prestigious nominations.
By the way, it is the director and screenwriter of the cartoon “Thread” – the author of the logo “elephants” on the game console “Dandy”. And in 2003, Maksimov participated in the creation of a new computer game called “Full trumpet”. close
