At the edge of the forest lies an old mill and a wild, magical garden. Hidden among the branches lives Petronella, a spirited apple witch who protects her world with her stag beetle friend Lucius and three chaotic Apple Folk. Her one rule: humans must stay away. But when the Branwick Family moves into the mill, twins Leah and Louis discover Petronella’s secret garden. After being magically shrunk, a wondrous world beyond anything they could have imagined is revealed. When the forest troll Thornbush kidnaps the Apple Folk, Petronella, Leah, Louis and Lucius join forces to rescue them. Along the way, they face the raven witch Hexandra Thistlecrow, discover unexpected courage, and learn to overcome their differences. As humans and magical creatures become friends, they discover that sometimes the greatest magic is finding a new sense of home.

Produced by Akkord Film (“The Elfkins“ & “Rabbit Academy“), with character design by Oliver Kurth (“Monster Family“ & “Animals United“) and animated by Seru Animation (“The Elfkins“ & “The Last Whale Singer“), APPLE CADABRA is based on the bestselling children’s book series “Petronella Applesauce”, loved by generations of young readers. The film is a magical family adventure about friendship, courage and finding your place in the world, brought to life through a charming cast of unforgettable characters and a richly imaginative world.
