The mother of the Forest / Muma Pădurii is a character from Romanian folk stories. She is an ugly witch, dressed in plants, who lives deep in the forest and scares people away. The AR work presents this character as a positive one that smiles in the beginning, but will turn sad with a distrusting grimace on seeing people, as a reaction to the destruction of the environment.
