At school for devils, the theme of the lesson is "Love". Whom should the devil still love? Imp No. 13 has his own answer, which does not correspond to the school curriculum in any way.

A Soviet cult cartoon, so untypical for a Western viewer, especially, a little one. A boy named Malysh ("A Little One") suffers from solitude being the youngest of the three children in a Swedish family. The acute sense of solitude makes him desperately want a dog, but before he gets one, he "invents" a friend - the very Karlson who lives upon the roof. So typical for the Russian culture spirit of mischief, which is, actually, never punished, and the notion that relative welfare not necessarily means happiness made the book by Astrid Lindgren and its TV adaptations tremendously popular in the Soviet Union and nowadays Russia and vice versa - somewhat alienated to the Western reader and viewer (see User's comments below). However, both the book and the cartoon are truly universal - entertaining and funny for the children and thought-provoking and somewhat sad for grownups.

The Kid didn't have to miss Carlson for long - one day he landed in his room again. This means that there will be new adventures and pranks! With Carlson's help, the harsh and bossy Freken Bock will be re-educated and become very kind. And then the friends will all put on a costume show with dancing and drink tea with buns.

Short Soviet puppet animation based on Gogol's novel Dead Souls.

A young chambermaid finds a neglected nutcracker under a Christmas tree. It comes to life, but the Nutcracker is really an enchanted prince.

Three friends are bored in eighth grade but everything changes after a new teacher arrives to the class.
