So, 'About Buka' is one of those intriguing pieces from the early '80s animation scene. Nina Shorina, who also did 'The Door', really captures an ethereal quality here. The animation style is quite unique—there's a softness to the movement, almost dreamlike. It doesn’t rush; it allows you to sink into its world. The themes are somewhat abstract but touch on existential ideas, which is fascinating given the period it came from. The fact it’s in Russian adds a layer of authenticity, even if you don’t understand the language. The practical effects, or rather the handmade quality of the animation, is really something. It’s not your usual commercial fare, and that sets it apart for sure.
