Description:

After meeting a self-important turkey, a chick also becomes conceited and decides to make his name in the outside world.

An early Ukrainian animated film, first released on July 4, 1936. Soviet records say that it was originally in colour (likely, there was at least one colour print, but most of the prints were in black and white). It was taken to Germany by the Nazi army during WW2 as a "trophy", and was considered lost until 2022, when it was rediscovered at Germany's Bundesarchiv, and later uploaded online. At the end of December 2024, this cartoon was among 9 films produced in Ukraine between 1919 and 1940, but considered lost, that was transferred to the Alexander Dovzhenko Center in Kyiv.
