The Little Witch is genuinely good at heart, but to be considered a worthy witch, one must be evil at heart. The Little Witch’s wicked aunt, Rumpumpel (Suzanne von Borsody), is not very fond of her and spies on her to prove that she does not have what it takes to be considered worthy of being with the other witches. Abraxas encourages her to study and learn every spell in the book to become a great witch, as none of the other witches can lay claim to knowing them all. Her task: memorize the entire witch’s book of incantations (7,892 spells) in a year’s time. She asks to be given the chance to prove herself as a viable witch worthy of an invitation, and it is granted. However, against the advice of her talking raven Abraxas (voiced by Axel Prahl), she goes anyway-and is discovered and punished. At 127 years of age, she is considered too young to be a full-fledged witch, so she begins the journey to expand her powers in the hopes of receiving an invitation to the older witches’ annual ceremony (the invitation-only Walpurgis Night), where they sing, dance, cast spells, and fly around on their brooms. The film is a whimsical, lighthearted account of a young witch, played by Karoline Herfurth, whose name is never revealed. The Little Witch is a film that was produced in Germany and dubbed into English.
