AN ESCAPE FROM MEDIOCRITY.

THE SACRIFICE FOR A DREAM.

​

A LIFE OF ILLUSION.

"WE DIDN’T HAVE MUCH PERSPECTIVE. BUT

HERE’S THE THING. YOU DON’T ACHIEVE

GREAT THINGS WHEN YOU’RE COZY AND

HAPPY. THAT LIFE SIMPLY MADE ME MORE

DETERMINED."

The Story

d ' ILLUSION TELLS THE UNTOLD STORY OF ERIK WEISS, THE MAN BEHIND THE FAMOUS NAME, HOUDINI.

​​

A HUNGARIAN IMMIGRANT WORKING FOR

THE AMERICAN DREAM, HE DISCOVERS

POSSIBILITIES OF ESCAPING A LIFE

BEYOND HIS HUMBLE BEGINNING AS HIS 

TALENT OF SHOWMANSHIP AND ILLUSION

LEAD TO EXTRAORDINARY FEATS. THROUGH MANY SUCCESSES AND FAILURES, LOVE AND LOSS, ERIK JOURNEYS TO FAME AND

CREATES A LONG-LASTING LEGACY. 

BUT JUST HOW MUCH DOES HE RISK FOR HIS NAMESAKE? WHAT’S WORTH SACRIFICING FOR A DREAM?
