I've not seen many old puppet films, and this one seems underwhelming - maybe because the Faust story is a bit complex. I do manage to follow somehow as I've seen the previously available Faust films, and this is inspired by them in many ways. In the few minutes this last, it is no room for the whole story, but we get to at least see the part where Faust interacts with the Devil and with Margaret. The animation is a bit jagged, maybe a fault of the dolls used, and sometimes the characters are too similar to tell who is who(except for Margaret). Other than that, it is watchable and cute in its own way - and as an early stop motion, it is also part of history.
