Frankly, I can't say I like this film much as it is rather mean-spirited and amateurishly-made. Also, it makes only a very half-hearted attempt at getting its intended message from the Ministry of Health across. It feels like by this point, control over effective use of public funds was not a priority in the country (which was in the midst of a sort of revolution). And while this allowed some really interesting animation to get made by accomplished artists, it also unfortunately allowed for stuff like this.

Back in 1973, director Ivanov-Vano had gotten a similar assignment and actually made something pretty decent.
