There was a scene in “Europa, Europa”, that took place in a Soviet classroom...the teacher asked the children to pray to Jesus for candy, and of course, none appeared....then she asked the children to ask Comrade Stalin for candy, and then candy started falling from the ceiling...and from what I heard, that was pretty standard in Soviet schools for the teacher to do this.

Look up the 1957 Soviet animated cartoon “The Snow Queen”.

In it, goodness is literally frozen out of a child’s heart.

An unintended depiction of what communism does to the human spirit, IMO.

There was a variation on this in "The Children's Story" by James Clavell.
