The Magic Mountain
Eitan Efrat and Daniel Mann
2020
The Magic Mountain focuses on three locations in Europe where tunnels, quarries
and caves were dug into the ground. These points of contact, where the surface of
the earth is disturbed and narrow shafts allow vertical access into the subsoil, are
sites of speculative knowledge from which beliefs, imaginations and unofficial
historical anecdotes are derived and circulated. Exploring these underground
locations, the Magic Mountain touches on the insatiable desire to extract natural
resources from the ground, but also and more importantly, modes of knowing,
sensing and seeing the world.
The Magic Mountain is a collaboration between Daniel Mann and Eitan Efrat. The film’s world premiere took place in Rotterdam Film Festival, 2020
