The Magic Box tells the fascinating and affecting story of the English motion picture pioneer William Freise-Greene, a man who lived only for his work, often sacrificing himself, his family and his fortune to satisfy an obsession - to make pictures move.

Made for the Festival of Britain in 1951, The Magic Box is not only a fascinating story beautifully presented, but also a piece of cinema history, with a cast that reads like a who's-who of the British film industry of the time.
