Funny Magic (Russian: Весёлое волшебство, romanized: Vesyoloye volshebstvo) is a 1969 Soviet fairy tale film directed by Boris Rytsarev based on the play by Nina Gernet and Grigory Yagdfeld.
Plot
Picking unknown flowers in the field, girl Katya did not even suspect that she had found the miraculous Kashchei's grass that could cast a spell on Vasilisa the Beautiful. The old cleaning lady Akulina Ivanovna told the girl about this, in the distant past Baba Yaga. Riding on a broomstick, they fly out of the library window towards adventures, grabbing a magic book, without which Kashchei cannot be defeated in any way.
