Steamlyannaya Hamonika
незабываемый обед
2023·2m·★ 10.0
Russian original
Depicts the isolation and brutalization of humans in modern bourgeois society. Although being broadly in line with other art-as-propaganda of the era, censors felt it could easily be read as a criticism of the party, leaving this subversive short as the only animated film to be banned in the Soviet Union.
