Admittedly, I know very little about upcoming Russian film Skazka XXI and I must concede the possibility that maybe, perhaps, this would all make more sense if I understood the context. But I doubt it. Here's what I do know:
It is the product of three directors - Aleksander Barshak, Yelizaveta Solomina and Konstantin Statsky - and is a full on musical. It features Night Watch and Wanted actor Konstantin Khabensky in a mad scientist wig. It features omnipresent Russian tough guy - and Khabensky's Night Watch cohort - Yury Kutsenko wearing remarkably bad eyebrow makeup. It has a robot man whose costume is basically just a cardboard box, a sad sailor bear, and a family of toys comes to life who are far to happy to be in a bathroom together. This, my friends, is weird. And also kind of awesome.

There is actually five directors for five different episodes in this film. There is also synopsis for each, but I am too lazy to translate. I'll say only that the center of each segment are children in some sort of fantasy adventure.
Khabensky is Encyclopedia.
