Big Relay Race

July 1979 •Russian

In ancient times, many centuries before our era, the Greeks fought so often and shed blood that even the formidable Zeus could not stand it and suggested taking a break every four years. For this, sports competitions were invented, during which it was strictly forbidden to fight with each other. The competition was named the Olympic Games, and since then the tradition has been passed down from generation to generation.

Children and Matches

July 1969 •Russian

A cut-out animation warning for children about the danger of fire and playing with matches, far from the grim warning of your typical PSA and anticipating the complicated human psychology of Norshteyn's subsequent work. And, no doubt, there is a metaphor aimed at the power structure. 1968-69 was a crucial period of transition for the animator, breaking out of the pack at Soyuzmultfilm and beginning to script and co-direct films. Not listed on imdb, this is one - if not the first - of his first solo works as director.
