(Viewable version of the book available here or here): "In 1997 at the second Open Russian Festival for Animated Film in Tarusa, it was unexpectedly discovered that animation not only had not disappeared from the face of the Russian land (there had even been the idea to stage its national funeral), but, on the contrary, had found the remarkable strength for the strongest creative leap. The festival turned into an unforgettable fireworks display of movie events, new names, genres and styles and visions that would determine the future vectors of development of the art. Against the background of a clearly bewildered and pale [Russian] live-action cinema, sunken in the grip of economic and political turmoil, the animators attracted unprecedented attention. The contemporary animated films were talked about not only on the pages of specialist publications, but on TV as well. Newspapers and magazines of the widest circulation started talking about animation, such as "Kommersant", "Izvestia", "Matador", which had not previously been noted connoisseurs of this soulful art."
