Soviet Summer Camp Comedy WELCOME, OR NO TRESPASSING (1964) w/ Soviet Animated Shorts
July 23, 2023 : 3:00 pm
“The Soviets sent a man in space before the Americans, and made a Wes Anderson film before Wes Anderson.” -Alexandru, Letterboxd
A satirical comedy about the excessive restrictions that children face during their vacation in a Young Pioneer camp, Welcome, or No Trespassing is the Soviet answer to Moonrise Kingdom, made years before Wes Anderson was even born! Directed by Elem Klimov, best known for the grueling anti-war epic Come and See, Welcome is a buoyant work, full of movement, gentle yet biting humor, and a vibrant spirit. Dedicated to “adults who once were kids and to kids who will one day be adults,” Klimov’s film is a delight at any age.
The film will be preceded by a selection of classic Soviet animated shorts, including Fyodor Khitruk’s fokloric spin on Winnie the Pooh.
