A beautiful young girl named Vasilissa loses her mother to unexpected illness. Naturally, her father marries again. And the stepmother, although beautiful, just can't stand Vasilissa.
Sound familiar? Yes, this might be the Russian version of Cinderella. But you've never heard a Cinderella like this.
Animate dolls, huts on chicken feet, talking fire-eyed skulls, witches traveling in huge mortars... this is Russian fairy tales at their wildest, darkest, but also most beautiful.
