The Tale of the Priest and His Servant Balda, op. 36a

The Tale of the Priest and of His Workman Balda (Сказка о попе и о работнике его Балде) is a partially lost Soviet feature length cartoon directed by the husband-and-wife team, Mikhail Tsekhanovsky and Vera Tsekhanovskaya. It is based on the eponymous fairy-tale in verse by Alexander Pushkin. The score was composed by Dmitri Shostakovich. The only surviving scene (2 1/2 minutes) is called Bazaar (Marketplace). The rest of the film reels were lost in the bombing of the Lenfilm studio during the Siege of Leningrad in 1941.
