Carrie-Anne Moss’s voice over about the ancient myth of the witch Baba Yaga::
There are versions of her all over the world. Sometimes she’s an ugly old witch. She lives in a dilapidated house on chicken feet. Sometimes she’s a wise woman, an enchantress, a healer. Sometimes she helps a hero on his quest. Sometimes she tests him. Sometimes she kills them. Sometimes she eats them. Sometimes she fucks them. But, she always has a name.
