Cockroach
1988, Russian. Directed by Rasa Strautmane.
The life of a simple cockroach is not easy. Not only are people poisoning him at every turn, he still has to exist without a TV. And our hero has a dream - TV. Unrealizable, but a dream. And yet one morning he believed that dreams come true, because he found a whole penny. We see several episodes from his life in the barn, a trip to a restaurant that is located in the floor of a real restaurant for cockroaches, getting only the TV console instead of the TV itself.
