When their Ukrainian grandmother is lost on a trans-Atlantic Flight, two
sisters are swept into a quest across eastern Europe to find the woman who
had always told more tales than truths.

From Poland to Slovakia to Hungary and beyond, Larissa and Ira navigate the
steps of Ukrainian folk dance, the cliff-side paths of Slovak Paradise
National Park, and the stark realities of war, folktales, and feminism, all
for the sake of chasing who they’re starting to believe is a true Baba Yaga.
Understanding their family’s roots has never been more clear.

The setting’s mythic properties drift like ghosts in the humid air, hinting
of the folktales the sisters whisper like codes of bravery. The nesting
dolls they discover reveal how each woman becomes stronger when tucked one,
within another, within another—forgetting lies and truths to seize
upon history, love, and the familial traditions that have shaped them into
who they are together.
