Ten-minute short, directed by Vladimir Pekar for Soyuzmultfilm, based on hieroglyphs

This is the last of four shorts by Anatoly Petrov for Soyuzmultfilm in the 1990s that depict mythological stories with overtly erotic content, which is unusual in Russian animation. These also include “The Birth of Eros,” “Daphne” and “The Nymph Salmacis.” These films are also unique due to their experimental use of two-dimensional handcrafted cell animation as a means of creating three-dimensional effects.
