Ferda The Ant In The Foreign Service (1979)

An adaptation of the book by Verna Aardema

A merry shape-shifter based on the famous fairy tale "The Wolf and the Seven Kids".

Two days before Christmas. Zuzanka and Tomás, friends from a kindergarten wander off during a walk. They admire toys and decoration in shop-windows. Zuzanka shall receive a sledge as a Christmas present and Tomás even a desired little brother. At a shooting gallery Tomás aims at a target on the trunk of a blue elephant which can call in Christmas. The impatient Zuzanka pushes to her friend and he shoots directly to the elephant's red eye. Things which the owner of the shooting gallery warned about happened: the sun popped on the sky, the snow melted and all Christmas shopping has stopped. Both pushful children decide to get a new eye for the elephant so that everything can be set right.

Ordinary winter holiday turns into an adventure when trash starts to rain from the sky and all the holes in the city disappear. Snot and Splash solve the mystery, and at the same time save the world from being sucked into a black hole.
