Wiki.
The Snow Maiden (Russian: Снегу́рочка; tr.:Snegurochka) is a 1952 Soviet/Russian traditionally animated feature film. It was produced at the Soyuzmultfilm studio in Moscow and is based on the 1873 Slavic-pagan play of the same name by Aleksandr Ostrovsky (itself largely based on traditional folk tales). Music from Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's 1882 opera The Snow Maiden is used, arranged for the film by L. Shvarts. The animated film was shown at movie theaters.
The film is listed as being in the public domain on the website of the Russian Federal Agency of Culture and Cinematography.
The film also lapsed into the public domain in the United States when its US copyright expired, but the copyright was restored under the GATT treaty.
