Project Detail

Emily and the Baba Yaga

Synopsis

Once upon a time in a place not far away
Lived a lovely little girl, whose name was Emily
But the good times and the smiles will be over soon
For a chainsaw and a witch, she'll meet beneath the moon
Add a cruel twist of fate that will kill tranquillity
And how it unfolds, you have to watch and see.

A unique modern adaptation of an ancient Russian fairytale, using striking 3D computer imagery.
