Overview

"'Taking Back Magic' is a supernatural drama that uses corrupted witch hunters to examine how far both jealousy and hatred of the misunderstood can go, and that by partnering with the "other" can work through these issues. After learning about a group of witch hunters taking witches' magic for their own personal use, one witch hunter seeks out a witch to help stop them. Magic provides a visual way to tell this story and brings back a reminder of past witch hunts, that have come to mean an overzealous campaign against different ideas." -- Abstract
