This is a pretty good quality copy of Yuri Norstein's short film.
There are times I'm mystified by how he does what he does. His technique is just amazing- the visuals are wonderful. I'd love to just watch how he makes some of these scenes. If Norstein ever made a "How To" DVD I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Id second that, I want a "how to" DVD from Norshteyn also.
I found this film through a site about Hayao Myazaki who admires his work and seemingly has become friends with the man. It's haunting those films of his.

Yep, I really enjoyed this film when I saw it...I think my favourite part is when he looks up at the tree and the camera kind of circles it a bit...wonder how he did that.
Just don't watch his film about a crane, it's soooo boring.
Actually there is a very good (and long) movie about russian animation in general. it covers several animators, all of them masters. in yuri norstein part you actually see him and his wife work.
film called "magia russica"

This cartoon made my childhood. But for me real masterpiece of russian animation is alexander petrov "mermaid"
