🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director constructs a brief narrative that relies on the immediate transformation of literary fantasy into criminal reality. It explores the temptation of power granted by science (or sorcery) using basic yet effective double-exposure tricks to visualize the invisible.

What lingers after viewing is the ironic simplicity of a plot where the first superpower acquired is directed at the most petty theft. It’s a curious period piece where magic serves only to steal apples and wallets. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Segundo de Chomón
