Plot Synopsis

Iskender is a failure as a magician. He knows his tricks but fails to convince his audiences, especially when the "sawing a woman in half" performance goes terribly wrong. The only person who believes in him is Maradona, his childhood friend. Together they dream of a better life, and embark on a tour to escape from Istanbul. For that they need the caravan of his brother-in-law which is currently occupied by Iskender's father, the grumpy and seemingly senile Sait. There's no other choice than to bring him along. Luckily Sait is a good bargainer and he lands Iskender a job on a wedding. Iskender agrees reluctantly but things go downhill again when the bride really disappeared during his disappearing trick… While the tour makes them come much closer, it also results in a magnificent fall-out. The Magician is a road movie filled with both laughter and tears.
