Mel is on a road trip, collecting spells — runic symbols imbued with magical properties. Some of these properties are quaint, others can alter the fabric of reality. While some spells are hoarded by unhinged people in various states of affluence or disrepair, other spells lay dormant in the attics and basements of unwitting inheritors… scrawled on old cookbooks and teapots, carved beneath floorboards.
This film finds the scrappy artist Mel deep in her journey, her diary-turned-spellbook filling up with some useful but otherwise inconsequential magic. We join her on a fast-paced heist that turns into a fast-paced fight, as a search inside a famous actor’s LA home becomes a clumsy magical scuffle.
