The director and animator, whose name went down in cinematographic history of Lithuania, Russia and France, where he lived and worked, has been all but forgotten in Poland. His figure is interestingly made more familiar by the film Treser żuków / The bug trainer (2008) – a Polish and Lithuanian co-production – not only recounting the life and work of the great magician of animation, but also trying to recapture the fabulous and magical world of the films of the precursor of puppet animation.
