If I Met a Magician

About This Movie

If I Met a Magician is an intriguing exploration of memory and loss set against the backdrop of Israel's National Memorial Day. The film captures a very somber yet reflective atmosphere, as Omri meanders through Tel Aviv's streets, grappling with the weight of his past and the legacy of those who served. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of introspection that really resonate, while the sparse dialogue emphasizes the protagonist's internal struggles. Even though the director is unknown, there's a raw authenticity in the performances that feels genuine. The film’s practical effects are minimal, which keeps the focus on Omri's emotional journey, making it distinctive in its simplicity and depth.
