Kolobok, Kolobok!..

About This Movie

So, Kolobok, Kolobok!.. from '88 is this interesting take on a classic fairy tale. It dives into themes of life choices and the passage of time, which gives it a real somber tone. The animation style is quite distinct—think of it as a blend of traditional techniques with some surprising practical effects. The pacing is a shade uneven at times, but that just adds to its charm, I suppose. The characters, while simple, carry a weight that reflects the moral lesson of the story. It’s definitely not your typical kids' animation. It feels almost meditative in its approach, leaving you with some food for thought after it wraps up. Worth a watch for sure, if you’re into unique interpretations of folklore.
