The Magician

The Magician is an avant-garde 1972 film by Cristove Vianna. Though praised for its interesting concept, it was not a successful film.

Plot
Victor is a magician who uses "cheap tricks and false sympathies" to aid grieving women, while at the same time getting access to their finances and their love. Victor has conned many women but he always manages to escape from them. But one day, he starts getting wierd dreams of each of the women standing by his bed on the day the king dies. He keeps on getting the same nightmare every night. One day when he wakes up, he picks up a paper to see the headline "SINGER ANDREW KING DEAD". He starts thinking, what if this is the day? Worried, he manages to get through the day without meeting any of the women. But that night he gets another dream like the ones before, except all the women are in his room. He frantically wakes up, to find them all there, where he is promptly suffocated.
