Introduction

About This Movie

So, 'Introduction' from 1992 really captures that unique moment in time, right as the Soviet Union was shifting gears. The animation is surreal, almost dreamlike, which adds this strange layer of escapism. You can see how the artists were grappling with the chaos of their world. The pacing feels a bit off at times, but that's part of its charm—like it’s not in a rush to explain itself. It all comes together in a way that challenges your perception, using practical effects that add depth to the animation style. There’s this kind of haunting quality in the themes of change and identity, making it stand apart from other animations of its time. It’s not just a casual watch; it’s an experience.
