This documentary novel, based on extensive archival material, reconstructs the biographies of two film fairytale writers—Aleksandr Ptushko and Aleksandr Rou. The intertwining destinies, the mosaic of films, the debunking of fables, and the true events of the two heroes' personal lives are inextricably linked with the history of Soviet film fairy tales. The reader will learn why the Phoenix didn't fly, what potions Baba Yaga favored, who could have played Pushkin, Tsar Saltan, and Chernomor, how miracles were performed, and how Stalin and Khrushchev influenced fairytale characters. This book is a tribute to these tireless, inimitable, and unique masters of cinema and an expression of gratitude for the wonderful, warm world they gifted to generations of viewers.
