Finalist

Armed with raw musical talent, years of performing with the music industry's top players and producers and the desire to bring back the funk, original Rufus band members, along with their legendary friends, return to the funk that was more than a trend but a movement. Grammy award-winner Bobby Watson along with recording artists JR, MT, Niki Haris and so many others hit the studio before taking a bus tour to Las Vegas where they perform hits such as I'M EVERY WOMAN, TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD, and many more, all while bringing down the house.

A feature documentary filmed in Israel during the second Intifada, the story of Magic(s) follows a "Medical Magician" by the name of Magic Michael who travels from one pediatric ward to the next using laughter and humor to bring smiles to both young patients and their families. Featuring Israelis, Palestinians, Russians, Druze and so many other cultures who all suffer identical grief when a loved one is recovering from sickness or injury, Magic(s) learns of their particular stories from inside the hospital walls while tensions mount in the country of Israel outside the hospital. Magic(s) is the convergence of politics, culture and love.

​

As Magic Michael shares frequently, "children smile the same way all over the world."
