Best friends Bibi and Tina share a passion for horses—and Bibi's witchcraft adds extra sparkle. These elements have captivated young audiences, making a third film a natural follow-up.
Horse-loving Bibi and Tina head to summer camp with international students at Falkenstein estate, home of Tina's friend Alexander and his count father. Tensions spark between boys and girls, leading to rival teams: Alexander sides with Urs, while Bibi and Tina team up with a charming Frenchman.
Through geocaching challenges, they hunt gold stars by bike or horseback in the forest, encountering an old friend along the way. The competition intensifies, threatening chaos—just as Bibi's magic falters. Will they pull through?

Our 8-year-old, a fan of the animated series and horse enthusiast, was thrilled. Her 5-year-old sister joined eagerly. Originally German and dubbed seamlessly in Dutch, the vibrant, natural setting—camping, games, quests, and 'boys vs. girls' rivalry—sparked her imagination.
The story features diverse characters: bullies, nerds, fashionistas, scouts, plus fun adults like the spoiled count, enthusiastic game master, and jittery camp leader. Everything stays light-hearted, even mishaps like a hallucinatory mushroom. Catchy songs add swing and emotion. Our girls watched with joy and suspense. 'Mom, I want to do magic too!' (Me too! 😊)
