- Synopsis
- Ida‘s best friend, Miriam, is staying with the Kronenbergs for three months and will be attending Winterstein School alongside Ida. On Miriam‘s first day, Max gets the magical owl, Muriel, and to her surprise, Miriam also receives a magical animal, the energetic tarsier Fitzgeraldo.
  
  Max and Muriel quickly form a bond, and the perceptive little owl soon notices that Max may have deeper feelings for his best friend, Leonie, than he is ready to admit. Meanwhile, Ida discovers that the desperate headmaster, Siegmann, has been keeping a crucial secret from the students: Winterstein School is about to be sold. Ida and her class see the upcoming school challenge as their last chance to save the school.
  
  However, Miriam is shocked to learn that her former school is also competing in the challenge. Feeling like an outsider among her old classmates, she confides her worries only to Fitzgeraldo. Torn between two worlds, Miriam faces pressure from her past friends, leaving her conflicted about where her true loyalties lie.
  
  In the grand finale, the magical community comes together, led by the determined headmaster Siegmann. With his extraordinary support, they manage to bring the adventure to a triumphant conclusion. Building on the huge success of its three predecessors, which have collectively grossed over $56.5 million in Germany, School of Magical Animals 4 continues the beloved brand based on Margit Auer‘s bestselling book series. Adapted for the screen by the renowned production company Kordes & Kordes Süd, this fourth installment brings another magical adventure to life at the Winterstein School, featuring the star-studded cast from the previous films. Set to release in Germany on October 2, 2025, through co-producer Leonine, the film is expected to enchant audiences once again. The successful book series has been translated into more than 26 languages.
