Tale of Tales

Tale of Tales is a poignant and visually stunning animated short film that delves into the human experience through a series of interconnected vignettes. With no conventional narrative, the film employs a non-linear structure, mirroring the way memories are recalled. Set against the backdrop of war, the film explores themes of love, loss, and the power of art to give us strength. Through a range of techniques, including puppetry, cut-outs, and traditional cell animation, the film brings to life a cast of recurring characters, each with their own unique story to tell. A little girl and her bull, a small boy and his crows, dancers and soldiers, and a train all weave in and out of the narrative, set to classical music and jazz tunes. A masterpiece of Russian animation, Tale of Tales is a moving and thought-provoking work of art that will linger long in the memory.
