Women in Boxes is the first film ever made that about the unsung hero behind the Magician. The devoted, if not masochistic Magic Assistant who distorts her body into impossible positions while the magician cuts her in pieces, stabs her incessantly, sets her on fire, crushes her, dismembers her, restores her to life with a dramatic "taa daa" and takes a bow for the credit. Who is the woman who would subject herself to such torture, not to mention the Magician's Ego?
