Vasilyok
Directed by S. AristakesovaImpressionistic illustrations and a tender admission of sorrow distinguish this animated short from run-of-the-mill Soviet propaganda. A young boy searches the countryside for stories about his beloved grandfather who died at war. He is eventually reassured that his ancestor' death was not in vain but a lingering sense of loss colors the springtime landscape.
