At the turn of the century in Poland, travelling magician Yasha Mazur attains fame and fortune with his astounding illusions and sleight-of-hand.

But even here. the indomitable trickster has a final, life-redeeming bit of magic up his sleeve, "The Magician of Lublin" is a passionate drama of the power and danger of dreams.
