When Fir Trees Light (Soviet Union, 1956)


Figure 3.--Many of the boys in the Soviet animated film "When the Fir Trees Light" (1956) wear short pants with long stockings.

A HBC reader has mentioned a Soviet cartoon movie "When Fir Tress Light". The advertisement was drawn by Viktor Suteev. I do not have much information about the film. The charactrs appear to be children and are costumed in contempraryy Soviet children's clothes. The boys wear both short and long pants. The boys in shorts wear long stovkings. Some of the children wear school uniforms. The girls in school uniforms often wear pinafores. The school children wear Young Pioneer red neckerchiefs. All the children seem to be 10 years old or younger.
