THE MAGICIAN’S ELEPHANT on @netflix casts a beautiful and emotional spell, proving some things are impossible only until you believe they're not. I enjoyed the marvelous animation, script, and talented voice cast. More in my @AWFJ review. https://awfj.org/blog/2023/03/17/the-magicians-elephant-review-by-valerie-kalfrin/
