When a greedy landlord taxed the peasants on the snow, the two old men had no money to satisfy their owner’s appetite. The insatiable scoundrel took a large pot of oil from them in return, but the grandson of the old people did not want to put up with this.
Sneaking to the landlord’s house, the boy overheard his conversation with the guard: “Let him lie down to the carnival, the carnival will come – and future!” The fool did not understand what was being said, and the peasant grandson, introducing himself as Maslenitsa, easily received his pot from her hands. When the landowner realized that he had been held, he rushed after the boy in pursuit.
The animated film is based on the fairy tale O. Tumanyan. close

A Soviet cult cartoon, so untypical for a Western viewer, especially, a little one. A boy named Malysh ("A Little One") suffers from solitude being the youngest of the three children in a Swedish family. The acute sense of solitude makes him desperately want a dog, but before he gets one, he "invents" a friend - the very Karlson who lives upon the roof. So typical for the Russian culture spirit of mischief, which is, actually, never punished, and the notion that relative welfare not necessarily means happiness made the book by Astrid Lindgren and its TV adaptations tremendously popular in the Soviet Union and nowadays Russia and vice versa - somewhat alienated to the Western reader and viewer (see User's comments below). However, both the book and the cartoon are truly universal - entertaining and funny for the children and thought-provoking and somewhat sad for grownups. close
