Three from Pankivka
IMDB 0 | Jan , 1989
The animation tells the story about three dull, but funny brothers from the Pankivka village. They make a mess of all things. If there’s nothing to do, they can easily come up with something that will make them look stupid. They will cut a cock’s feathers instead of brother’s hair, and will make a fish broth in the lake, will choose the longest way of two paths, and will “help” their neighbors with all their hearts.Three from Pankivka at the Fair
