how to make magic

The read

It runs a compact 5m.

Synopsis

How do you distinguish real magic from trickery? In film, as in nature, how much does illusion depend on the unexpected and how much does wonder depend on artifice? Filmed in the New Forest, the largest remaining unenclosed common land in England, where the entanglement of non-human and human activity hides a joyous spell. With fragments from a 1974 children’s book called How to make magic, discarded from the library I work at. (Blanca García)
