Passion of Spies ( Russian: Шпионские страсти, Shpionskiye strasti) is a 1967 Soyuzmultfilm's animated black-and-white film directed by Yefim Gamburg. [1] It parodies spy and detective fiction clichés [1] and got a status of a cult film. [2]
Plot
In Part 1, a foreign Intelligence agency chief Shtampf is suffering from a toothache. After learning about a wonderful, state-of-the-art dentist's chair invented in the Soviet Union, he develops a plan to steal it. His top agents pass information between each other, but Soviet agents catch them unaware, ending with a car chase where a musician-turned-chauffeur is injured. Part 2 tells the story of the chauffeur's idle son Kolychev, who tricks his parents out of money to attend a fancy restaurant. He is seduced by a foreign agent and tricked into buying a large bill, then convinced to plant a bomb beneath the dentist's chair in exchange for the bill being waived.
