About Baba Yaga. Beginning
What made the little sorceress Jadwiga turn into the hermit Yaga and hide in a hut on chicken legs in a swamp? What will happen when Princess Sineglazka accidentally gets to Yaga in the swamp, whom the evil stepmother-sorceress forces to go to the ends of the world for rejuvenating apples? And who will force Yaga to help people again? Baba Yaga is a colorful and exciting adventure in which the strength of friendship and faith in goodness overcome evil, betrayal and loneliness.
Directed by Denis Voronin, Baba Yaga. Beginning leans on a strong ensemble — Larisa Brokhman, Olga Shorokhova, Petr Kaledin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 2018.
