A Little Time Machine

1967 · 22 min · Animation, Science Fiction

This film tells about the discovery achieved at the intersection of many sciences: cybernetics, astrophysics, telepathy and veterinary medicine. Soviet scientists made a sensational invention - the device "TV-1" (a transistor of time) was designed. Trial samples were disguised in household items: they were equipped with beads, a flower and a cane. The owners of experimental devices were random people.
