Process Media presents Ingmar Bergman's 1959 supernatural film, The Magician, to celebrate the release of the new Manly P. Hall biography, Master of Mysteries. The film follows a mid-19th-century magician and his wandering crew of medical performers, as they travel across the country trying to dupe a skeptical public. Led by original string composer Ysanne Spevack, a live ensemble of improvising musicians accompanies the film on acoustic and electric violins, accordion, electric guitar, keyboards, and a saw.
