Long time no see, товарищи! After a two months hiatus your lovely RMW returns, with a vengeance!
This week I present you an not very ordinary Soviet movie, named “An Ordinary Miracle”, which I personally like very much.
It’s accompanied by another animated masterpiece, “The Old Man and the Sea”, based on a renowned Ernest Hemingway’s novel.

The Old Man and the Sea is a 1999 paint-on-glass-animated short film directed by Russian animator Aleksandr Petrov, based on the 1952 novel of the same name by Ernest Hemingway. The film won many awards, including the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film.
Work on the film began in March 1997. It took Aleksandr Petrov and his son Dmitri Petrov (who helped his father) until April 1999 to paint each of the 29,000+ frames. The film’s technique, pastel oil paintings on glass, is mastered by only a handful of animators in the world.
