Description:

Bear gets a pinched nerve in his back and is forced to go to Ms. Fox for an expensive special pill.

The first video above (10:02 long) has a sharper image and is and in the original theatrical 24fps frame rate. It was scanned from 35mm film for the RuTracker animation scanning project in Dec 2024. The second video is in the TV frame rate of 25fps.

Although technically well done, I can't really understand who the intended audience is. The story is told in a very childish way, but the script makes reference to all sorts of everyday details of contemporary Soviet life that a child would not be familiar with. The result is just kind of odd - neither a children's film, nor an adult one. Not bad, but not my favourite of Davydov's films (which would probably be the "Mowgli" series).
