Dreams of memories

Tale of Tales (1979)

Directed by Yuriy Norshteyn this animated film has narration from Alexander Kalyagin. A series of vignettes from rural Russia are shown.

Rather than a clear narrative this is a dream like wandering through a series of short memories or imaginings. There are repeated themes and ideas but they are buried a little deep for my liking meaning it can be a little hard to get into this film. The animation is nice and certainly has it's moments with a style that reflects the rustic nature of some of the images it shows.


4/5
