Description

Both "Animal Farm", Joy Batchelor John Halas's film based on the Orson Welles novel, and "The Snow Queen", Lev Atamanov's animated fairy tale, were part of efforts to end the Cold War. One was a CIA propaganda move, the other a diplomatic attempt at reducing tensions. Can you guess which is which?
