STRANGE WORLD: The Purple Ball

We present The Purple Ball (1988), a Soviet science-fiction classic directed by Pavel Arsenov. The story follows Alisa Seleznyova and her father, Professor Seleznyov, on a space journey where they encounter their friend, archaeologist Gromozeka. His recent discovery is alarming: an entire alien civilization has perished after exposure to a “virus of hostility.” Evidence shows that this virus reached Earth 26,000 years ago – and it is about to break loose.

To prevent disaster, Alisa must travel back in time to an era where witches, dragons and magicians lived alongside ordinary people. The film blends imaginative fantasy with futuristic ideas, creating a unique tale about courage, responsibility and the fragile balance between worlds.
