A twenty-four-year-old former college student decides to wander the city streets after he's left homeless by his father, his only close relative. There he struggles to find a new home through random people he runs into and old acquaintances while suffering from the torments from his past and a strange disease that seems to be damaging his health quickly.

It is the story of a moneyless middle-aged magician whose life takes an unexpected turn when a little girl who seems to have supernatural abilities, truly "magical" powers, begins to appear frequently in his garden, causing him to rethink his profession, his vision of magic and, ultimately, his life.
