Lilly the Witch: The Journey to Mandolan (German : Hexe Lilli: Die Reise nach Mandolan) is a 2011 German children's film directed by Harald Sicheritz. [3] [4] It is the second Lilly the Witch film, being preceded by Lilly the Witch: The Dragon and the Magic Book . [5]
In her second cinematic adventure, Lilly the Witch must travel to the oriental kingdom of Mandolan. On behalf of the Grand Vizier Guliman, she is supposed to banish a curse that weighs on the king's throne and that Guliman wants to climb. Lilly soon sees through the grand vizier's wrong game, which the throne rightly throws off again and again. She finds out that Gulimann is not the real heir to the throne. The rightful king Nandi was overthrown by a scheme by Gulimann and is being held captive by the sorcerer Abrash. With the support of the magic dragon Hector and the Bedouin boy Musa, Lilly travels to the Forbidden City to free the king before Guliman can finally take over the rulership of the land.
