One year after the disappearance of amateur magician "Magic Mac" McGarvey, this retrospective will attempt to unpack the mysterious circumstances surrounding his sudden rise to fame, and his even more swift fall from grace.
Magic Mac was produced for the 48HFP World Film Challenge with even more of a skeleton crew than our usual, so when we picked the genre of "fantasy," we knew that twisting it into the context of a mockumentary would allow us to play to our strengths. We were stoked to take Best in City among the Seattle teams who competed, as well as a later selection in the Seattle Film Summit!
