The "folk" aspect of this folk-horror is the dreamy fairytale-like setting, the "horror" part is a fable about the commodification of art or self or beauty or womanhood or all of the above.
Beyond the movie: If there's a theme or takeaway to the disc (which also houses Litan) this is on in the All the Haunted Be Ours Vol. 2 box set, for me it would be that with a strong will or an idea and someone who believes in you, you can do or create anything, and I think that's a lovely thought.
To tie that idea into this title: It took Christiane Cegavske 13 years to make this beautiful, touching, heartbreaking - yet often fun - movie. I'm glad it exists.
