Experiencing Interruptions?

Molodez!

Inspired by Andrei Tarkovsky's startling film 'Ivan's Childhood' and two major works of the Russian Avantgarde - 'Black Square' by Kazimir Malevich and 'White Circle' by Aleksandr Rodchenko - this short animation film recounts the Brothers' Grimms' tale 'Rapunzel' from the prince’s perspective and turns it into a many-layered story: the human side - telling about our daily desires and aims, our ways to achieve them, our failures and unexpected twists and turns life can take; the technical side - how an animation film works and how a character must be designed to make it successful with the audience; the art historic side - presenting two major artistic phenomenons in Russian Art History and rendering Malevich's idea of Suprematism comprehensive and showing how sometimes by chance we come across some of the most inventive and revolutionary ideas.
