We absolutely loved it at the Edinburgh International Film Festival last summer (read our 4-star review here) and now MAGIC MAGIC is coming to UK cinemas and On Demand from 18th April 2014, and on DVD from 28th April 2014.
Leading the film is BAFTA rising star Juno Temple and the equally great and freaky Michael Cera, this film will play with your mind and assault your senses. It’s written and directed by Sundance Grand Jury Prize winning filmmaker Sebastián Silva (THE MAID), and also co- stars Emily Browning, Agustin Silva and Catalina Sandino Moreno.
Check out the creepy, Psycho-music-vibe trailer below and scroll down for more info:
MAGIC MAGIC will be available in cinemas and to own or rent On Demand in high and standard definition from 18th April 2014.
MAGIC MAGIC tells the story of a shy young girl, Alicia (Juno Temple), who embarks on the trip of a lifetime to a remote part of Chilé with her cousin Sarah (Emily Browning) and Sarah’s friends. However, the holiday does not go as planned as Sarah suddenly has to return to school leaving Alicia alone in an unfamiliar place with unfamiliar people. Alicia desperately tries to settle into her new surroundings but finds it difficult; entering a world of disturbing landscapes where she begins to mentally unravel. Her friends see her increasingly erratic behaviour as irrational, but they remain blissfully unaware of how much darker things will become for them. As their lack of sympathy – and the language barrier – pushes Alicia further into isolation and closer to the edge, things begin to take a rapidly downwards spiral for the group; forcing them into a situation that proves both terrifying and life-threatening…
