Don Kihot is a 1961 experimental animated short by Vlado Kristl for Zagreb Film. It is loosely based on Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes.
Themes
The author reduced the characters in the short to
atonal music.[2]
Reception and legacy
The short was blacklisted during the former
magnum opus for Kristl.[3] Speed and Wilsom state that the short "presents the eccentric individualist assailed by all the forces of the modern state - guns, radar, tanks, planes, patrols, armies - and in some amazing way the nonconformist deviationist Don triumphs over them all".[4]
