WFAC 2009: Alisa's Birthday

Based on the novel Alisa, the Girl from Earth, part of a series of hugely popular childrens science fiction stories by Russian novelist Igor Vsevolodovich Mozheiko (writing under and best known by his _nom de plume_ Kir Bulychev), Alisas Birthday is a trippy film filled with creative characters and incredible energy, sensitive to its serious side and playful with innocent wonder.

Alisa Selezneva, a girl living on planet Earth at the end of the 21st century, fails her history exam right before her birthday. Upset and disappointed, she has to spend her summer vacation taking the class again.

Everything changes when Gromozeka, an alien friend of Alisas father and an acclaimed space explorer, invites Alisa on an expedition to the far-away planet Koleida as a birthday present. The planet is lonely and deserted as a lethal plague had wiped out its entire population a hundred years ago. But, only Gromozeka knows that Alisas destiny is not only to find out what had happened, but to save Koleida and change the course of history.
