Mavka: The Forest Song (Ukrainian: Mавка. ЛіÑ�ова піÑ�нÑ� — Mavka. Lisova pisnya) is a 2023 CGI animated Fantasy / Fairy Tale film made by the Ukrainian studio Animagrad (which previously made The Stolen Princess), directed by Oleksandra Ruban. It is inspired by The Forest Song, a Slavic Mythology-based poetic play in three acts by Lesya Ukrainka, one of the earliest examples of fantasy in Ukrainian literature.Taking place in a fantasy version of rural Ukraine, the story is about Mavka, the gentle humanoid soul of the forest, who faces an impossible choice between love and her duty as the new Guardian of the Heart of the Forest. She falls in love with a human, the talented young musician Lukash, and together they must face the evil woodswoman Kylina, who is seeking to destroy the forest in order to find a mysterious source in its heart.The film rapidly got a Screen-to-Stage Adaptation into a musical in its home country, and a TV series is in the works. | |

The Farmer and the Viper: In the backstory, the sawmiller begged the spirits to help save his dying daughter, so Leshy gave him a drop from the Source of Life to heal her. He then came back with an army to try and take it all, leading to a devastating battle and the nature spirits losing all trust in humans. It gets even worse when it's revealed that there was no daughter, and he and his wife just made the whole thing up because they wanted immortality and riches. | |

Our Nymphs Are Different: Among the nature spirits, there are two nymph-like women, one of which, Ondina, watches over rivers and other water places and lures one of Kylina's two big henchmen in a pond to drown until he regains his senses and flees (yet he still harbors a crush on her afterward). Both nymphs mock Mavka for not being as willing to fight humans as they are. | |

Ambiguous Time Period: The village feels very much like rural Ukraine from the 19th century, the guns of Kylina's two brutish henchmen feel likewise, there's a 1900s car, and then there are things like Frol's very modern dandy, fashion-oriented flamboyance (with an English name in 1980s-like typo on the back of his coat), chainsaws and a big wood-cutting machine on tracks. | |

Dangerous Forbidden Technique | |
Mavka: The Forest Song (Animation) / int_8f0dc93c | comment |
Dangerous Forbidden Technique: Summoning the spirit within the Rock has massive destructive potential, but it will burn friend and foe alike and exacts a price. Mavka does so in the climax, and nearly pays with her life. | |

Glamour Failure | |
Mavka: The Forest Song (Animation) / int_90984c54 | comment |
Glamour Failure: At some point, half of Kylina's face starts to show her true age with big wrinkles. She promptly uses one last drop of the mysterious liquid to rejuvenate her face, then plans to reach the Fountain of Youth to get more of it. | |

All-Loving Hero | |
Mavka: The Forest Song (Animation) / int_99e14f05 | comment |
Mavka is an All-Loving Heroine who's the only one among her kind to believe there are good humans. It’s even called attention to in the film itself, as her fellow nymphs warn her that she’s far too trusting, and Kylina weaponizes it against her, lying that Lukash told her Mavka was too nice to go against her. | |

Mavka: The Forest Song (Animation) / int_abe1e24e | comment |
Good Cannot Comprehend Evil: Mavka is an All-Loving Heroine and doesn't quite comprehend that people like Kylina are evil just because of greed and other such things. At the same time, she's the only one who can build a bridge between the superstitious villagers and the mistrustful spirits of nature. | |

Animal Stampede: A shot of the blunderbuss of Kylina's two big henchmen causes a herd of wisents (European bisons) to nervously run. Mavka jumps on one of them and calms them down when they head towards a cliff, causing them to swerve at the last moment before the cliff. | |

Advertising by Association: Some English-language posters advertised it as follows: "For family audiences that loved Ainbo and The Jungle Book". Ainbo, like Mavka, is an example of animated film from a country (Peru) that's emerging on the international CGI animation market like Ukraine, and also features a female protagonist, a Green Aesop about the protection of a forest from humans who seek to destroy it, and Nature Spirits. | |

It’s even called attention to in the film itself, as her fellow nymphs warn her that she’s far too trusting, and Kylina weaponizes it against her, lying that Lukash told her Mavka was too nice to go against her. Lukash is a gentle young man who dreams of being a famous musician, and he only accepts to work for Kylina because he needs money to tend to his sick uncle. Lukash's uncle Lev too. Although he follows the villagers when they're out to destroy the forest, he's quick to realize how wrong they are to do so. | |

God in Human Form: Granted Mavka already resembles a human, but in order to better blend in for the village festival she turns into a brunette (bar a few still green hair on her braid), changes her eye color from supernaturally green to plain brown and conceals most of the visible runes of her body, complete with a vyshyvanka and a red dress. | |

Mavka: The Forest Song (Animation) / int_fd68019a | comment |
Our Sirens Are Different: Ondina is a nymph who watches over bodies of water. Early on she lures one of Kylina's two henchmen into a swamp pool to either drown or scare him and he's initially too enthralled by her beauty to notice, until a human skull emerges from the water and his pants get dissolved, freeing him from the charm and making him run away (he still harbors a crush on her afterwards). | |
