  • Animation directed by Elbert Tuganov. The second Soviet-Estonian puppet animation by the father of Estonian animation brought out by Tallinn film whose, then founded, animation subdivision is called Nukufilm, the, under that name, still existing internationally reknown Estonian stopmotion studio. At the time nukufilm did not produce it's own puppets yet, they were borrowed from handpuppet and marionet theater makers.
