Andrei Khrzhanovsky, 2005

Andrei Yurievich Khrzhanovsky (Russian: Андрей Юрьевич Хржано́вский; born 30 November 1939 in Moscow[1]) is a Soviet and Russian animator, documentary filmmaker, writer and producer known for making art films.[2][3] He is the father of director Ilya Khrzhanovsky. Married to philologist, editor and script doctor Maria Neyman. People's Artist of Russia (2011).[4]

Career

He rose to prominence in the west with his 2009 picture Room and a Half starring Grigory Dityatkovsky, Sergei Yursky, Alisa Freindlich) about Joseph Brodsky.[5][6] Although Khrzhanovsky's 1966 dark comedy There Lived Kozyavin was clearly a comment on the dangerous absurdity of a regimented communist bureaucracy, it was approved by the state owned Soyuzmultfilm studio. However, The Glass Harmonica in 1968, continuing a theme of heartless bureaucrats confronted by the liberating power of music and art, was the first animated film to be officially banned in the Soviet Union.[7]
