Connection
Fyodor Khitruk is a Director, Scriptwriter, Art Direction and Animation Director Russe born on 1 may 1917 at Tver (Russie)
Fyodor Savelyevich Khitruk (Russian: Фёдор Саве́льевич Хитру́к; May 1, 1917 – December 3, 2012) was a Russian animator and animation director.
Diverging from the “naturalistic” Disney-like canons that were reigning in the 1950-60s in Soviet animated cartoons, he created his own style, which was laconic yet multi-level, non-trivial and vivid.
He is the director of outstanding animated short films including such classics as his social satire of bureaucrats, Chelovek v ramke (The Man in the Frame) (1966), the philosophic parable, Ostrov (Island) (1973) about the loneliness of a man in modern society, the biographical film Ein Junger Mann namens Engels - Ein Portrait in Briefen (1970), based on drawings and letters of young Engels, the parody Film, film, film! (1968), and the anti-war film, Lev i byk (The Lion and the Bull) (1984).
In April 1993, Khitruk and three other leading animators (Yuriy Norshteyn, Andrey Khrzhanovsky, and Eduard Nazarov) founded SHAR Studio, an animation school and studio in Russia. The Russian Cinema Committee is among the share-holders in the studio.
In 2008, he released a two-volume book titled The Profession of Animation («Профессия – аниматор»). He is the grandfather of violin virtuoso Anastasia Khitruk.
Khitruk lived in Moscow, where he died in 2012, aged 95.

La vie coule tranquillement dans la société ancienne. Chacun y trouve sa place et les gens consacrent leur temps à des discussions philosophiques sur le sens de la vie. Parmi eux vit Icare, un excentrique qui essaie d'apprendre à voler comme les oiseaux. Retombant à chaque tentative, il se voit asséner un proverbe par l'un des vieux sages qui observent la scène, comme, par exemple Festina lente, Quod licet Iovi, non licet bovi, Quo altior gradus, tanto profundior casus, Bene qui stat non moveatur, etc. Ces paroles atteignent le ciel et en retombent sous forme de monuments de granit. Mais un jour, un miracle se produit et Icare s'envole.

Avec son charme insolent et terre-à-terre qui séduit à la fois les enfants et les adultes, la série - qui commence avec "Vinnie-Pukh (1969)" - a depuis développé une sorte de culte et est considérée par beaucoup comme surpassant de manière décisive ses homologues de Disney, même si elle s'intègre difficilement dans le canon officiel. L'animation elle-même est quelque peu grossière et minimaliste, mais cela ajoute au charme de l'ensemble, l'histoire et les personnages prenant vie comme s'ils sortaient tout droit d'un livre d'images.
