Defending a friend, duckling is attacked by fox and must learn to survive.

The fly, flying over the field, found a coin. Pleased with this fact, she went to the bazaar to buy a samovar and invite her friends to celebrate her birthday. But then a misfortune came - a spider burst into the festival and stole our fly. None of the guests decided to join the spider in a duel, except for a small, but brave gnat. Fortunately, everything worked out, and fly and gnat made a harmonious pair.

Short Soviet puppet animation based on Gogol's novel Dead Souls.

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.

Animated figures of a mantel clock - the boy Tock and his sister Tick set off to travel through the pages of the book “Travel to the Land of the Giants”. There they learn about the great construction projects of the Soviet Union and get acquainted with production processes.

A paint-on-glass animated film (one of the first of its kind) about a dying falcon and a stupid snake.
