Kalamajka

A tongue-in-cheek tale about a fat ass who spends his days lying above the stove, stuffing himself with liver and bacon and dreaming of flying roast pigs. The animated wooden figures with excessively rounded shapes are underscored by folk music with a children's choir that is quite irritating. Probably the whole thing was supposed to have some educational effect, but in any case it's probably the least interesting achievement of Týrlová, although she joined forces here with the creator of the Little Mole Zdeněk Miller.
