This film is part of the The Bremen Town Musicians series.
Description:
The king hires a sleuth to track down his daughter, who ran away to join the Bremen Town Musicians. A sequel to the popular earlier cartoon.
Following the wide success of the original Bremen Town Musicians cartoon, there was demand for a sequel. However, the original director was not initially interested, and decided to do another project. While she was busy with that, the role of director was offered to Vasiliy Livanov, who had been a screenwriter for the previous cartoon and had directed several animated films already. This sequel was a success as well, due to its similarly-memorable music and competent crew.
There are two English subtitles that can be selected - a literal translation and a poetic/rhyming one that still stays pretty close to the original words. The second one is selected by default.

I actually like this one more than the original - the songs are equally as memorable (and they seem to run all the way through the film without break, more so than in the original), and a lot of other things are done better. The sleuth is a fun new addition, I like that the backgrounds are no longer in crayon but more similar in style to how the characters are drawn, and the story, while still minimal, is stronger (with no more dubious tricks by the "heroes" like dressing up as bandits to trick the king). I guess it's because Livanov was director - I think he cared more about polish than Kovalevskaya did. Shame it was his last director's credit in animation, but I suppose he went on to bigger things.
