Secret Trove of Rare Foreign Stop Motion

I've stumbled upon a YouTube channel that has a few amazing stop motion and clay animated films. Probably from Russia and made to a very high standard.

If you like European style animation then you will love these films. I can't say much about them except that they have a great hand made quality and look to be old world stories, probably told to children. If you happen to understand the language you are lucky. If not these films are great to study and get visual ideas. I'm posting four below, but if you want to search for more you can visit the original YouTube channel that these were posted on over here. What do you think of them? Post your thoughts in the comments below.

Dominshlaptk endact vormenisniski nyet slavanskita! This of course means absolutely nothing, but after watching all four of those, even my thoughts are in a slavic language I cannot understand.

But this takes nothink away from the sheer brilliance of all that gorgeous animation! Laganosh Finistada!!!
