Experimental Fragment

Viktor Rybak, author of many film reports and documentaries in the period 1923-1930, founded his own company for the production and film lab processing in 1931. This experimental fragment was created because of Rybak’s intimate amateur enthusiasm: it was made without pretensions to public display and commercial exploitation. According to Rybak, without the title and “trailer”, the film was made in cooperation with employees of his company. He also remembered the name of the cartoonist: Miroslav Modic. This is the first preserved film strip with animated drawings made in Zagreb.

The Night Before Christmas

A narrator sings the opening stanzas of the classic poem while we see the house at rest. Santa lands on the roof, comes down the chimney, and opens his bag. The toys march out and decorate the tree, with the toy soldiers shooting balls from their cannon, a toy airplane stringing a garland like skywriting, and the toy firemen applying snow. A blimp delivers the star to the top. Meanwhile, Santa fills the stockings. His laughter awakens the children, who sneak out. The toys rush to their places, and Santa escapes up the chimney just in time.
