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]
