A short film screened at the Ghibli Museum in Mitaka and Ghibli Park in Nagakute. The story unfolds under the spell of Joe Hisaishi's arrangement of Antonio Vivaldi's La Folia.
In a lonesome water mill deep in a forest of briers and brambles lives a witch named Baba Yaga. There the witch keeps her servant the Egg Princess confined and forces the tiny egg-girl to do all the hard daily chores around the mill. One night, a large batch of kneaded dough resting in a trough suddenly comes to life from the witch's spell. Fearful of the witch, the Egg Princess and her new friend decide to run away. What will lay ahead for the two of them...?
