The Tinderbox Against the Magic Well (2026)

Directed by Andjei Petras

“Ты сам творишь сказку, в которой живешь!”

Fantasy, Music · 1h 39m

Based on a story by H.C. Andersen, with new magical heroes, terrifying “woodpunk” robot dogs, real puppet theater, songs & dance numbers. Little Hans, a kind itinerant storyteller, opens his magic box, takes out his puppets, and, together with his spectators, creates a new fairytale. But not every character obeys the puppet master’s strings. The truth of the fairytale breaks everyday rules: here loyalty and friendship make miracles; love destroys the strongest magic spells; and a song wins a war!
