Headline "The Impossible Dream" – An Animated Short Subject

Caption Description This short animated film, a co-production between writer Tina Jorgensen of United Nations Radio in New York and director Dagmar Doubkova of Kratky Films, Prague, takes a humorous look at a universal problem for women: holding a full-time outside job while being the traditional housewife. The film shows a family with two school-age children and a small baby. The wife works the same hours as her husband for much less money while coping with the children and household chores at home. In the final sequence the woman dreams her husband and her children help with domestic chores, and the film asks if this is really ""The Impossible Dream"".
Dagmar Doubkova of Kratky Films, who designed and directed the film. [No exact date]
