⭐️ Direction le Texas ! 🤠

C'est une nouvelle destination pour Le Magicien, qui sera désormais présenté dans un nouvel État américain : le Texas, dans le cadre du Waco Independent Film Festival.

Le festival se déroulera du 16 au 19 juillet dans la ville de Waco, célèbre notamment pour être la ville d'origine du Dr Pepper (information hautement essentielle 🥤). 📍

Félicitations à toute l'équipe du film pour cette nouvelle sélection et pour ce troisième État américain au parcours du film !👏

Thanks to the festival for the selection! 🙏
