Animated adaptation of four fables by Isaac Bashevis Singer, featuring an orphan, a talking goat, and an amnesiac elf trying to save a Moldavian town from sorcery and its own foolishness. The end features a computer-assisted golem attack.
When God distributed wiseness and foolishness through a newly created world, one of the cherubs accidentally dropped all the foolishness on a tiny village called Chelm. So everyone in the village is very dumb. Recently orphaned boy Aaron and his friendly goat Zlateh live there with Aaron's uncle Shlemiel. When an evil sorcerer and his monster attack the village, Aaron and Zlateh have to defend it themselves.—Anonymous
Animated adaptation of four fables by Isaac Bashevis Singer, featuring an orphan, a talking goat, and an amnesiac elf trying to save a Moldavian town from sorcery and its own foolishness. Earnest but rather flat cartoon picks up near the end, with a computer-assisted golem attack. Forgettable Michel Legrand-Sheldon Harnick songs.
