Storyline

Growing up in an orphanage in the British countryside, Earwig has no idea that her mother had magical powers. Her life changes dramatically when a strange couple takes her in, and she is forced to live with a selfish witch. As the headstrong young girl sets out to uncover the secrets of her new guardians, she discovers a world of spells and potions, and a mysterious song that may be the key to finding the family she has always wanted. — GKIDS Films Having spent her entire life at St. Morwald's Home for Children, Erica Wigg, an intelligent 10-year-old orphan, has learned how to win over the charitable institution's staff. But with her past remaining a mystery, the little charmer bites off more than she can chew when a peculiar couple, Bella Yaga and her unusual companion Mandrake, sets foot in the orphanage and takes her in. After all, there's more to Erica's blue-haired foster mother than meets the eye. As a result, the girl embarks on an exciting mission to unravel the enigma surrounding the off-limits rooms of her strange new home, armed with childish curiosity and endless determination. And soon, she discovers a hidden world of practical magic and potent elixirs. Haunted by unanswered questions, will Erica ever find the family she has always yearned for? — Nick Riganas
