Description:

A little tricycle escapes from the store display window to play to find a child who will adopt it. For young children.

The original Russian title actually has the word "velocipede" in it rather than "tricycle", as that is the common word for both bicycles and tricycles in Russia. Since in English the word refers mainly to historical 19th century devices, though, it has been translated as "tricycle" in the title.

Another Uzbek animation (like most from the past 2 weeks). I find this one to be a bit pointless/aimless, honestly, and the jerky camera motion (often even while the camera is meant to be staying still!) is kind of irritating. The character design of the tricycle is nice, though. It seems that the director was around at the very beginning of Uzbek animation in the mid-1960s, and her last film was in 2022, so she had quite a long career.

As far as the story of "toy escapes from a shop window to find a child to be with", I think The Blue Arrow (1985) did it better.
