Welcome (Russian: Добро пожаловать) is a 1986 Soviet paint-on-glass-animated 10-minute film adapted from the 1948 children's book by Dr. Seuss Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose.
Released in 1986,[1] the film went on to win the Grand Prix at the Ottawa International Animation Festival in 1988[2] and in Los Angeles.
The art director was Aleksandr Petrov,[3][4] who would later win an Oscar for his 1999 film The Old Man and the Sea.
A kind-hearted moose wandering through the forest agrees to give a ride to a Colorado beetle on his antlers.
Suddenly, shots ring out, and the moose flees in panic, inadvertently saving his passengers in the process.
