Well, here's an actually good film for a change, after 2 days of less-than-stellar ones (that I uploaded mainly because they required little work to add)...
The draftsmanship of the artwork - really going for that early 20th century "Silver Age" upper class style - is wonderful. The style reminds me of the early animated films of Winsor McCay, although I doubt Amalrik had seen them. Generally speaking, less realistic styles were definitely more popular in Soviet animation in that year (although it was only two years later that prominent young director Anatoliy Petrov would switch mainly to a realistic style himself).

The danger with portraying a boring life is that it risks the film itself being boring, and it does move quite slowly by today's standards. I myself liked it, but those used to fast-paced thrills may not. Amalrik was past retirement age at 64 when he directed this, and it would be his second-last film after a brilliant career that had started in the early 1930s.

As for the subtitles, there was very little to translate. It is so close to being in the "wordless" category, but because of the girl's letter - no, not quite. The old 2016 subtitles were for an older video of the film that had 5 seconds missing in one place and 4 seconds in another, so the timings in the last half had to be corrected.
