My Fairy Troublemaker (Meine Chaosfee & ich)[1] is a 2022 animation film directed by Caroline Origer. A Luxemburgian-German coproduction,[2][3] the film revolves around a tooth-fairy who remains stuck in the world of humans.

Maxi, the teenage daughter of a single mother, is not happy to leave the countryside for the big city, but she and her mother move there to form a new family with Amir and his two sons.
In the world of fairies, Violetta misses her tooth-fairying exam one more time and she is denied the possibility of going to the world of humans. Despite all interdictions, she manages to go there and finds herself in Maxi's new room.

Reception
The Guardian gave the film a mixed review, stating: "Luckily, the animation has the finesse the story doesn't; competition for Pixar's rhythm and texture on presumably a fraction of the budget".[5]
A review in Telerama criticized the colors and music in the film but found its plot clever.[4]
