Chipollino (Russian: Чиполлино) is a 1972 Soviet musical comedy film directed by Tamara Lisitsian. The film is also known as Cipollino (International informal title and English / Italian title).




Plot


In a village where the onion boy Chipollino lives, the townsfolk gather in the market square to welcome the visiting Prince Lemon. In the crowded square, Cipollino’s father, Cipollone, accidentally steps on the prince’s foot and is thrown into prison as a supposed rebel and troublemaker.
The steward of the Cherry Countesses, Señor Tomato, following his mistresses’ orders, evicts poor neighbor Uncle Pumpkin from his tiny home. Prince Lemon needs the land for a new military base, designed by foreign military advisor Mr. Carrot.
The Cherry Countesses issue a decree stating that villagers must now pay rent not only for their homes but also for the air they breathe, as well as for rain, snow, hail, and other forms of precipitation.
Cipollino urges the villagers to resist this injustice. With the help of the young Count Cherry and maid-servants Strawberry, the villagers seize an old castle, withstand the siege of Prince Lemon’s army, and soon drive out the oppressors, raising the banner of victory over their free village.
