This is a fascinating story of two magicians caught in a game of one-upmanship. I can’t say more than that regarding the plot, without spoiling it.

The movie starts with a scene of just a few seconds, and the question “are you watching closely” is asked, and the scene is gone. Watch that scene closely. 🙂 The plot is a bit hard to follow as it jumps all around in time, without much reference/context other than what you figure out… So this would definitely would be a good movie to watch a second time.
