Russian Video from Russia is back to our Movies for the weekend. Today we are watching a very interesting and unusual full-length Soviet cartoon “Laughter and Grief by the White Sea” (Смех и горе у Бела моря), 1987. It’s made by stories of two Russian folklorists and writers Boris Shergin and Stepan Pisakhov. It’s a great collection of Russian Pomors‘ (Russian settlers and their descendants on the White Sea coast) fairy tails.

This movie has English subtitles – if you don’t see them please push CC-buton on the player!

You can watch this movie fullscreen version if you push “fullscreen button” on the player.
