Remake of the 1947 Soviet film directed by Ivan Ivanov-Vano and produced by the Soyuzmultfilm studio in Moscow.

An alien falls down from the sky in front of a wolf cub. His big ear allows him to listen to everything that happens in the universe. Yet somehow he fails to hear forest creatures calling for help.

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.

Little Tiger is unhappy with the cloudy day: the sky is covered with clouds and the sun is not visible. Cheerful Monkey invites him to go for a walk.

The ordinary schoolgirl Masha, who forgot to change into a school uniform and dressed as a boy, mistakenly kidnaps Zilzilya, the servant of the wizard and the custodian of Bakhram's underground treasures.

It's a story about how the animals decided to swap their tails, but soon realized how important each animal's own tail was.
