Fantasy Family

Synopsis

The first color cartoon made in Yugoslavia and the first award-winning cartoon of Yugoslav cinema, with a diploma at the Berlin Film Festival. Writing a review of the Little Red Riding Hood in the Narodni list (April 9, 1955), Nenad Turkalj humorously remarks: “From the material on which Disney would base the entire (episodically stretched) feature film, our artists have made a witty foreplay, which is suitable for both its purposes: as a suggestive storyline for children’s imagination, and as a funny coloured spectacle for adult viewers who will laugh at many jokes.
