Zaubereien oder Die Tücke des Objekts

In a quiet European town, a curious magician’s workshop becomes the stage for a peculiar game with objects that seem to have lives of their own. When a series of innocent misadventures spirals into unexpected consequences, a determined guard and a thoughtful apprentice must navigate a tangle of magic, memory, and desire. With humor, whimsy, and a touch of melancholy, the film explores how fascination with the tangible—tools, trinkets, and everyday artifacts—can reveal deeper truths about longing, control, and the gaps between what we wish for and what we actually possess. A delicate balance of charm and mystery drives the story, inviting viewers to question how objects shape our choices and our sense of self.
