In 2012 Gosfilmofond of Russia restored the cartoon. The author of the version was Nikolai Izvolov.[5] In addition to restoring the image, the voice-over narration of the events on the screen was performed by Alexander Negreba.[6]
"Sentimental Waltz" by Pyotr Tchaikovsky (1881) was used as the musical background. The premiere screening of the restored version took place as part of the 16th White Pillars Archival Film Festival 2012,[7] held from January 30 to February 3, 2012.[8]
