My "First Year Film" from the alternative film school Super16 in Denmark.
Pretty much right after beginning the school year, we were thrown into preproduction of a film project. A couple of months later we had a little film:
Touch Of Magic is a little film about a small person in a big world. Set during the industrialisation in Britain, we meet the sad Emma who, after being dumped by her boyfriend in favour of a promotion, is led into an abandoned theatre with the help of a black cat. Here, she meets the worn out magician Roberto, who tries desperately to impress her with one last spectacular show. But the magic is out of control, and Emma has uncertain motives for wanting to leave.
