  Click "about" :) It is by a Russian guy with a link to how he makes it, in Russian

  I mean, in this case, yes, but I am neither Russian nor a child of the USSR, and I know both Kvass and Kin-dza-dza (which I introduced to my wife, who was born in a post-soviet state). Not all that obscure!
  • bulbosaur123 4y ago
    Interesting. You must be from a CIS (ex-USSR) country then.
    • tomjakubowski 3y ago
      Anywhere there are immigrants from Eastern Europe in the US, you can find Kvass. It's everywhere! GP commenter may have had a friend from Belarus, or seen it on a store shelf and been curious
    • madaxe_again 4y ago
      Nope. Born in the U.K. to British parents. Got around a bit over the years, but never lived in an eastern bloc state.

    Yeah I mean you can buy Kvass from any vending machine in Moscow, it's very common.

    The whole movie is free on the Mosfilm YouTube channel with English subtitles, in case anyone's interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUtZOl_QxvY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUtZOl_QxvY I'd definitely recommend it :)

  I noticed several references to Russian pop culture in there, post-Soviet included. A fun project for sure. 1990s cartoon: https://i.imgur.com/wR4vISL.png https://i.imgur.com/wR4vISL.png Several references to the same comedy show from the 90s: https://i.imgur.com/a0ACpoo.png https://i.imgur.com/a0ACpoo.png https://i.imgur.com/tyE5l2d.png https://i.imgur.com/tyE5l2d.png https://i.imgur.com/LLatEnI.png https://i.imgur.com/LLatEnI.png The Caucasian bride (1960s comedy) https://i.imgur.com/RA3DBKX.png https://i.imgur.com/RA3DBKX.png Russian adaptation of Pinocchio: https://i.imgur.com/XJHwhhO.png https://i.imgur.com/XJHwhhO.png Tom & Jerry clone from the Soviet era (with a wolf and a rabbit): https://i.imgur.com/l9STeSD.png https://i.imgur.com/l9STeSD.png There were a couple I wasn't aware of, but it was obvious from the imagery they were Russian. Like this one (lol): https://i.imgur.com/VnLyLOq.png https://i.imgur.com/VnLyLOq.png This one also seems Russian, but not sure what it's for (maybe the "cyber Russia" shorts on Youtube): https://i.imgur.com/yRXrAj5.png https://i.imgur.com/yRXrAj5.png There is also one from Belarus (?) with Gordon Ramsay I never saw before, that one is really obscure: https://i.imgur.com/dvAVeuu.png https://i.imgur.com/dvAVeuu.png ......and that's how you waste your first hour at work >_<
