The Magnet Man

Directed by Gust Van den Berghe

With Danny Ronaldo, Mieke Dobbels, Karel Creemers, Jan Bijvoet and Isolda Dychauk-Ott

In the splendidly decorated barbaric world of Antwerp, an ordinary lonely Lucien has an inhuman capability to stick metal objects to his body. An introverted Buster Keaton-like man of a few words is a hapless artist, clown, freak, and musician with a wounded heart and a quiet violin. His vocation is to entertain the common people despite his burning pain and guilt for the inevitable loss of an estranged father.
