Irrepressible teenage witch Saxana (Petra Černocká)—facing three hundred years of detention at her sorcery academy—casts a spell that transports her to the human world where she joins up with a band of delinquents and uses her magic to spread mischief at their school—including turning the teachers to rabbits!
