Synopsis
What happens when a filmmaker is confronted by a psychic in a donut shop? A film that is alternately 'poignant and hilarious...', according to film reviewer, Randall King, and 'mesmerizing' praises Radio City CBC. A chance encounter at a Tim Horton's in downtown Winnipeg brought Barry Gibson and psychic, David Pandorra together. Pandorra, looking for an audience for his demonstrations, found in Gibson a skeptic about psychic phenomenon but a believer in the pursuit of a dream.The film is virtually a frantic monologue as Pandora along with his agent, Otto Schmidt, attempt to desmonstrate the reality of psychic phenomenon. Success and failure at cards and umbers, and a link to ufo's unscore a desperation to be as successful and famous as Uri Geller. Gibson shows the audience a warm and humourous account of life in pursuit of a dream that keeps Pandorra on the move.
