Re: Russia (seems like we're doing countries)

DA

Oh wow, I saw part of Tale of Tales last month as part of an animation exhibit touring the US. It was part of the exhibit with partially-open booths that played different works on a loop, so I came in somewhere in the middle and couldn't quite parse what was going on. But then the dance hall scene happened and... wow. (One set of grandparents lived in a small town that became Axis-occupied, so while I'm living a comfortable distance away from that, it gave me a similar chill to the stories we were told.) Even though I don't doubt I lost a broad level of interpretation without having a Russian cultural or literary background, what I saw was intensely memorable.

Aw, I'm happy you liked it :)) It is obviously possible to enjoy even without having the full understanding of the context (and of course there are many nations that were affected by the War, so there are similar cultural motifs to be found elsewhere). Plus, Norshtein is my favourite film-maker.
