A psychiatrist and his blind girlfriend, connected by a dark secret. A school nurse who loses far more than just her job when she resigns. Her brother, who is prepared to do anything for her. A desperate mother who lovingly cares for her son in a vegetative state. And who is prepared to try unheard-of things to reach him again. A young man who sells himself because he lost himself a long time ago. A pupil whose supposedly harmless prank links all these fates. And a boy who disappears.
The lives of these characters become irreversibly intertwined in this extraordinary story, which is driven by innocence, longing, magical thinking and manipulation.
MAGICIANS is a thriller. MAGICIANS is a fairy tale. An enchantingly beautiful voyeuristic journey through multi-layered emotional and psychological levels. A Film Company co-produced this Austrian “Neue Welle” psycho shocker for Superfilm in Vienna.
