Magic City An American Fantasy
Feature-length docu-series directed by Charles Todd, cinematography by Imani Dennison – release coming soon. In 1985, phone salesman Michael Barney — friends call him Mr. Magic — put his slick-talking gift to work, opening a small strip club in Atlanta. He plays DJ, bartender, and bouncer while his only dancer separates men from their money. Within a few years, Magic City would become the most famous strip club in Atlanta, and soon, the world. But when Mr. Magic gets sent away to federal prison, the empire he’s built may crumble.
