The first gingerbread animation: A parody of Czech fairytale clichés about three princes who have to go for a miraculous elixir to cure their sick father.
Directed by Zdeněk Smetana, The Water of Freshness leans on a strong ensemble — Stanislav Neumann — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 1966.
