THE MAGICAL LIFE OF LONG TACK SAM
(Canada, 2003) Dir./Scr.: Ann Marie Fleming
Filmmaker Ann Marie Fleming travels the globe searching for the story of her great-grandfather, the cosmopolitan vaudeville magician and entertainer Long Track Sam. To unravel the mystery of a man she knows nothing about, she turns to family, friends, acrobats and magicians. Their anecdotes and memories, interwoven with gorgeous animated archival material, paint a visually stunning portrait of not just a fascinating individual, but a particular world at a particular time.
