Fake it 'til you make it. The latest gem from Amalia Ulman, Magic Farm takes us on a kaleidoscopic journey packed with twists and turns, cross-cultural encounters, and true personalities.
When a misguided American documentary crew in search of their next viral segment ends up in the wrong town in rural Argentina, chaos ensues. As they collaborate with locals to fake a new music trend, unexpected relationships form and an unfolding health crisis becomes apparent.
Colourful and unfiltered, Magic Farm is led by a stellar ensemble including Chloe Sevigny, Alex Wolff, and Simon Rex. Shot through with a vivid sense of place, this Berlinale and Sundance selection combines a surreal send-up of the media with a heartfelt exploration of humanity.
