USSR animated version (1984): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oxP3TyuQx0
Thanks for sharing. Soviet era animation was creepy in its own right. This adaptation doubly so.
Where'd the Turkey dinner come from if it's a nuclear wasteland?
All joking aside; an excellent animation
This clip is what introduced me to this story.
This adaptation is heavily modified, but I think it adds to the whole thing. Soviet artists had an uncanny talent for making everything that's unsettling even more so.
