Production notes
Stop-motion animation.
Based on T. Ponomareva's story.
Immediately before perestroika, Soyuzmultfilm executives approved the script for this cartoon - supposedly about a boy fixing a door - thinking that it was a children's film. However, director Nina Shorina's version turned out to be intended for an adult audience.
Government film censors threatened to shelve the cartoon, but apologized to Shorina after it won several international prizes... and perestroika was solidly in place.
