Description: In four decades, Zagreb Film of Yugoslavia produced 600 animated films, winning more than 400 international awards. The studio quickly became famous for a unique animation style that became known as "the Zagreb school." One of the pioneering distinctions was that its filmmakers wrote, designed, and directed their own films, resulting in boldly entertaining cartoons unified in design, tone and message. This volume includes Be Careful What You Wish For, fourteen stories of irony, double cross, and mystery. Some are hilarious, some poignant, all memorable. The Classic Collection includes seven animated films representative of Zagreb's most unique offerings.

I almost returned this CD before I watched the second half of it.
The first half, "Be Carefule what you wish for", is blatantly pointless. Its a collection of animation that I guess is supposed to prove that they could make characters move, but didn't know how to write a decent story line. Maybe its because of the age of these pieces.
The second half, "The Classic Collection", redeemed the CD somewhat. "Mask of the Red Death" is notable in its style and story line (from the Poe story). "Butterflies" looks like a modern Chagall caught the animation bug...
