Andrey Svislotskiy

Hen, His Wife

Extraordinarily detailed and beautifully drawn animation of a bizarre and surreal world; the domestic life of a fat man, his wife, a sort of oversized obese chicken, and their child/pet, a slug-like creature with a human head. This expressionistic and interior vision of Soviet animator Kovalyov is like an animated Eraserhead. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive, Academy War Film Collection, in 2007.

Citizen Tony

You Animal

Speaking of Birds

The first, "underground" film by Tatarsky and Kovalev based on G. Borodin.
