A troubled artist and a powerful art dealer face off to gain control of two invaluable statues.

Magic Hour takes place over one day in Hollywood. It follows Max, a once-famous magician, as he struggles to make ends meet and survive. We follow the elder entertainer as he has a brush with death and a chance encounter with a beautiful visitor that will change both their lives forever.

Fast-talking, hilarious, and laden with east-coast charm and curse words, Steve is not your typical party clown. We meet this unorthodox man who can speak nonstop for hours without missing a beat, captivating and confounding his audience the entire time. But underneath the showman persona lives a more complex story. Through his unfiltered narration, we learn how he went from a healthy, happy kid, to a teenager whose own mind started turning against him. After major upheaval in his life, Steve developed severe OCD, struggled in school, and went out on his own, deciding to turn to entertaining others as a way to support himself.
