Winx Club: The Secret of the Lost Kingdom (Italian: Winx Club - Il Segreto Del Regno Perduto), also known as Winx Club Il film, is an Italian CGI animated feature film, based on the television series Winx Club, taking place after the events of the first three seasons. The film had premiere on November 30, 2007 in Italian cinemas.
Rainbow S.r.l. offered the film to the Cannes Film Festival in 2007. Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia sings the film's ending song, "All the Magic".
The story begins on a snowy, foggy day. In the isolated snow peaks, a looming castle casts dark, imminent shadows on the ground.
Six cloaked figures appear, whom are none other than the Winx Club. Bloom and her friends are on a search for Bloom's birth parents, King Oritel and Queen Miriam, with Bloom's belief that they are still alive. The girls are on their way to find Hagen, a blacksmith who forged the Sword of King Oritel, a magical sword with immense power that can never be separated from its rightful master, in hopes that he can sense the sword's power and trace it to Bloom's parents. The girls successfully sneak into Hagen's castle after an easy victory over his robot guards, and come face-to-face with Hagen, who believes they are intruders. Faragonda then arrives to ease Hagen, them being old friends. They return to Alfea to discuss the matter.
Bloom begs Hagen for his help in sensing the sword's power, but he admits that he is unfortunately unable to. Spirits plummeted, Bloom feels guilty for the effort her friends have put in when it had been hopeless the whole time, and runs off in tears to avoid facing them out of shame and sadness. This is easy as most of the Alfea third-year fairies are graduating to become Guardian Fairies, after having earned their Enchantix powers. Due to Bloom's powers being incomplete, she is compelled to stay behind as she watches her friends graduate. Consoling herself with her pet rabbit Kiko and a new kitty friend named Purr, Sky comes to comfort her, encouraging her to continue her quest despite Hagen's words. They share a tender moment until a mysterious girl arrives, forcing Sky to leave in a hurry, although he promises Bloom that he will explain everything later.
