Synopsis

A fairy tale about a narcissistic Kolobok who didn't appreciate anyone. Once upon a time there was a grandfather and a grandmother. They lived well, but they had no children and were sad about it. One day grandmother found some flour and baked a Kolobok from it, and it jumped off the stove and came to life. Grandfather and grandmother were happy that they had an heir, and he looked like his grandfather. They began to love him, feed and pamper him. And they decided that it was time for the kolobok to go out and help them, the old people. The colobok heard this, was indignant, saying that he was not born to work, he was born so beautiful, and left them. Who will he meet on his way?
