Tales of the Dark Forest

Tales of the Dark Forest (2025) is a Russian fantasy adventure you can watch online on iFILM — a family-friendly tale (rated 6+) from director Karolina Kubrinskaya, starring Ekaterina Suvorova and Anna Kovalchuk.

To rescue her parents, young Vasilisa ventures into the heart of a dark forest crawling with folk-tale spirits. The road tests her at every turn: she has to master her own fear, find allies, and stumble into first love along the way. Yet the deeper she pushes into this hostile world, the more she suspects she shares something with the creatures who live there.

Rooted in Slavic folklore — wood-goblins, kikimoras and other spirits set against a Russian fairy-tale backdrop — it's an easy watch for families with older kids, eerie but never harsh. Stream Tales of the Dark Forest (2025) online on iFILM.
