Addictive multidimensional plus the mass of understatements and secrets make the "Magical Girl" watching with pleasure. I did not expect so twisted history given in sweet and spicy sauce.

The director of the film:

In the "Magical Girl" I used the well-known cinema noir classic theme blackmail to talk about love, lust and the dark side of every human being. The eternal conflict of emotion and reason.

The film was a scene in which one of the characters explains why in Spain, bullfighting is still widely accepted. Spain is torn between emotions and rationality, and this conflict is born fascination with the duel instincts to reason, which can be seen in the arenas. "Magical Girl" grew out of an obsession with this fight - the eternal struggle that takes place in every person.
