{4\/5} “Mavka, let’s find you an outfit that says I’m a non-alarming local human.”<\/p>\n
Mavka: The Forest Song<\/strong>, released in 2023<\/p>\n Because of a tragedy ages ago, the humans on one side of the Dark Mountain and spirits on the other side leave each other alone. Mavka is a spirit, who brings the forest back to life in the spring. When the Guardian summons her and the other spirits, he says he is too old and they must choose a new Guardian. Lucas enters the forest because he needs money for his sick uncle and Kylina, the daughter of the late sawmill owner, is offering to pay.<\/p>\n This is a Ukrainian movie. The animation is stunning.<\/p>\n The characters are charming, but the ending is a bit silly.<\/p>\n It’s about beings who are afraid of others who are different from them, and one who would deceive all for their own greed.<\/p>\n Stars the voices of Laurie Hymes and Eddy Lee. Directed by Oleh Malamuzh (The Stolen Princess<\/strong>), Oleksandra Ruban (writer on the miniseries Patron the Dog<\/strong>), and Yevheniy Yermak (the miniseries Eskimoska<\/strong>). The music is by Dario Vero.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" {4\/5} “Mavka, let’s find you an outfit that says I’m a non-alarming local human.” Mavka: The Forest Song, released in 2023 Because of a tragedy ages ago, the humans on one side of the Dark Mountain and spirits on the other side leave each other alone.
