The interesting animated project Mavka - The Forest Song produced entirely in Kiev comes with a new trailer and an official release date.

Inspired by a classic Ukrainian poem, the film Mavka - The Forest Song is directed by Oleksandra Ruban and Oleg Malamuzh at Animagrad Animation Studios (FILM.UA Group). A fantasy with naturalistic messages also supported by the WWF.

The protagonist of the story is the Mavka of the title, the spirit of the forest, the very incarnation of the forest, complex and mysterious, but also strong and combative when the occasion calls for it. Together with her we find Lukash, a young man with a love of music who lives on a farm near the forest. The meeting between him and Mavka is a magical moment that sets the spark between the two. Threatening their world is Evilyn with the opening of a sawmill on the edge of the forest, the one she wants to steal the heart and the magic of the forest.

Expected in home theaters on December 29, 2022 and later in international markets, other material will be presented in Berlin next month, from 10 to 17 February, at the European Film Market where the contracts with foreign distributors will be concluded.

In the new trailer, we also meet Mavka's faithful friends Swampy, the grumpy guardian of forest noise Hush and the beautiful water nymph Ondine, as well as the main antagonist, the insidious and greedy Kylina, and his henchmen: Frol, Eric and Derek.
