Calabash Brothers

Calabash Brothers (Chinese: 葫芦兄弟 also known as 葫芦娃 in Chinese) is a Chinese animation TV series produced by Shanghai Animation Film Studio.

In the 1980s the series was one of the most popular animation in China. While it has been praised as much as Havoc in Heaven domestically, it was released at a point when the Chinese animation industry was in a relatively downed state compared to the rest of the international community. Still, the series was translated into 7 different languages. The episodes were produced with a vast amount of paper-cut animations led by Zhou Keqin who became the director of paper-cut animations in 1975.
