In Yaroslavl region, members of the Russian Orthodox Church confronted local authorities who, to attract tourists, had organized a Baba Yaga birthday party in Kukoboy village. But the clever girl sends Baba Yaga to market to buy turnips from her father, and he follows the witch back to the chicken-footed hut--where his daughter cooks up a satisfying turnip stew for them all. Baba Yaga, a timeless old woman "force," provides occasional clues and help along the way. |
