A girl named Willow

Feature Film | 2025

What is Willow supposed to do with a forest? She inherited it from her great-aunt Alwina. And not only that – Alwina also left Willow a little crooked house and, above all, her witchcraft. But does Willow really want to accept this inheritance and everything that goes with it? And on top of that, she has to find three girls who also have the gift of witchcraft and save the forest together with them. But where? And above all, how? Fortunately, Willow is not alone, because
Rufus the fox will not leave her side.
