Wiki.
The Tale of the Priest and of His Workman Balda (Сказка о попе и о работнике его Балде) is a partially lost Soviet animated feature film directed by the husband-and-wife team Mikhail Tsekhanovsky and Vera Tsekhanovskaya and based on the 1830 eponymous fairy tale in verse by Alexander Pushkin. The score was composed by Dmitri Shostakovich. The only surviving scene (2 and half mins) is called Bazaar (Marketplace). The rest of the film reels were lost in the bombing of the Lenfilm studio during the 1941 Siege of Leningrad.
