A Very Animated War

Original title: Krieg der Bilder - Der Kalte Krieg in Kindercomics und Zeichentrickfilmen

This historical account examines how the United States and the USSR used comic books and animated films to shape children’s imaginations throughout the Cold War. After Nazi Germany’s capitulation, communism and capitalism competed across the Iron Curtain, and the collapse of communism with the Berlin Wall left capitalism positioned to influence the world’s future.
