Animated Soviet Propaganda

Ave Maria (1x5)

Air date: Jan 01, 1972

Also known as “Against American Aggression in Vietnam,” his film is as anti-war as anti-American and portrays the Church as an actively malignant social influence. Underscored by Schubert’s “Ave Maria.” Ivanov-Vano, who worked as an animator on some of the animation films made in the 20s such as “China in Flames,” went on to become the USSR’s foremost director of animated films for children.
