Hi!

I'm trying to track down an old nostalgic childhood cartoon.I remember the following about it:

  • The cartoon was in Russian and that was the original language
  • It was in colour and used bright colours (which hopefully narrows the range)
  • It was somewhat old fashioned looking. My best guess is the 70s-80s but I'm really not sure
  • It was a children's cartoon
  • It was about the Slavic folklore about the fern (папоротник) plant, the Ivan Kupala Nigth (it's a holiday) and related traditions (I remember a the main child charachter jumping over a bonfire).I've attached two links to Wikipedia articles with some explanations on the cultural tidbits below
  • It is not The Fern Flower (1979) or Animated Tales of the World
  • It was a Soviet cartoon (probably)
  • The cartoon wasn't part of a show or series it was a stand-alone movie that was somewhere between 30 mins to 1.5h long

If you have any questions please ask, as I migth be able to remember more info.Sorry if it's obscure or not much to go off of.Sorry for any mistakes (English is not my first language)

Thanks!
