"THE ILLUSIONIST
Academy Award nominee Sylvain Chomet (THE TRIPLETS OF BELLEVILLE) directs this adaptation of a never before produced script written by legendary French filmmaker Jaques Tati. Set in post-war Edinburgh, this exquisitely animated, mostly silent homage to the stage entertainer is at once melancholy and heartwarmingly nostalgic.

THE ILLUSIONIST tells the tale of a vaudeville magician who, forced out of the limelight by the rise of rock ‘n’ roll, must face the inevitable fact that there may no longer be a place for him in show business, even while a young fan’s unwavering faith in magic allows him to rediscover the joy of his craft."
