Theo, not the most popular boy at his school, dreams of escaping the dreary everyday life, experiencing adventure and accomplishing great heroic deeds. His dream seems to be fulfilled when, one day, he finds a very old and magical book in the library and fascinates him with a short hand. He forges the plan to forge a ring with his best friend Bonav and the rebellious Laura, who can make him invisible. The charm succeeds, but the three friends conjure up all sorts of dangers of magical, but also secular nature. Only the mysterious red wizard Arkandias can now help you out of trouble.

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
This movie fails in many points. It fails in rendering a proper account of the book. It is badly adapted in contemporary (2014) area. It fails by mixing American Pie-style jokes in an fantastical novel with a coming-of-age undertone. It thus fails in finding its public : - too mature for the youngones. - too childish for elders. There is no point in this film. A child who is a looser, afraid of water, will finally be able to take over his fears and grow up a bit. So what ? We have seen this thousands of time in much better ways. Some special effects (very few actually) do not redeem its overall value. Not worth its lenght. Should have been issued as TV-only.
