Commentary:
This film, by the classic author of animated films, Dušan Vukotić, is one of the most bizarre films in Croatian cinema. It is a strange mixture of SF horror and parody, with the melodramatic elements of a family film as well as trash and camp. Today, it is a favorite among domestic film cultists. It won the International Award for Fantasy Screenplay at the prestigious international fantasy film festival Fantasporto in Porto (1984), together with Tajanstveni dvorac u Karpatima.
