Plot

In the frost-kissed realm of Russia, an insidious evil stirs, as the malevolent witch Baba Yaga (Andrea Martin) casts a chilling pall of terror over the land. Amidst this icy fear, a beacon of courage emerges in Bartok the Magnificent (Hank Azaria), an audacious albino bat, whose daring feats of enchantment captivate the hearts of Moscow's denizens, including the noble Prince Ivan Romanov (Phillip Van Dyke). However, not everyone is charmed by Bartok's bravura. The cold-hearted Ludmilla (Catherine O'Hara) sees him as nothing more than a naive annoyance, a fly in her grand scheme. But Bartok's mettle is soon put to the test when a savage bear launches an unexpected assault after one of his dazzling shows. With nothing but his wit and a pinch of dust, Bartok must transform into the hero that Russia needs, stunning the bear and confining it to the confines of a rugged wagon. Bartok's journey doesn't end there. As he navigates the tumultuous landscape of his own adventure, he encounters a kaleidoscope of characters. From a sly pink snake that slithers in the shadows to a dapper bear with a taste for sophistication, each encounter propels him further into the heart of danger. At the core of this maelstrom, the wicked Baba Yaga waits, her eyes set on the dominion of all Russia. Join Bartok as he flutters on the wings of destiny, where every beat takes him closer to becoming the true embodiment of magnificence. This tale of courage, adventure, and unassuming heroism is sure to enthrall, as Bartok proves that even the smallest creatures can cast the longest shadows.
