Hoffmaniada (Russian: Гофманиа́да, romanized: Gofmaniáda) is a 2018 Russian stop motion-animated feature film from Soyuzmultfilm. The film is one of the first full-length puppet animated film in the recent history of the animation studio. The concept and the art design was done by Mikhail Shemyakin and is edited by Stanislav Sokolov and Veronika Pavlovskaya, written by Sokolov and Viktor Slavkin, and directed by Sokolov.
The screenplay incorporates story lines and characters from the work of E. T. A. Hoffmann (Little Zaches Called Cinnabar, The Golden Pot and The Sandman), with the main character being Hoffmann himself. In particular, it focuses on the duality between the imaginative universe of his writings and his real-life profession as a government clerk (based on his letters and journals). The film stars the voices of Vladimir Koshevoy, Slava Polunin, Natalya Fisson, Anvar Libabov, Anna Artamonova, Aleksey Petrenko, Pavel Lyubimtsev, and Aleksandr Shirvindt.
The first twenty minutes of the film were screened on 20 November 2006, in Petersburg House of Cinema and received positive reactions from various news outlets. The animated film was released in Russia on 11 October 2018 and is denoted as the entryway of the modern Soyuzmultfilm animation studio. The film was later distributed to Japan in 2019. The film has been recognized with accolades of the Golden Eagle Award, Icarus Award, and Brazil Stop Motion International Film Festival award.
