CloseAs cheeky, boisterous and witty as it is delicately drawn and beauteous to behold, Sylvain Chomet’s second feature film is a winner on every level.
Our weary hero is an over-the-hill magician, complete with less-than-friendly white rabbit; their adventures are based upon an unrealised script by the great Jacques Tati, the action of which Chomet transposed to Scotland after moving there in 2004.
Always in search of a paying gig, the illusionist treks from Paris to the Western Isles to Edinburgh – acquiring along the way a young travelling companion who sincerely believes in his magical abilities.
