The film’s FB page says:
“A documentary about the rise of occultism in the U.S. in the 20th Century, with a focus on it’s zenith: NYC in the 1970s and 80s. This is the story of Herman Slater’s Magickal Childe, an occult emporium that was at the center of the Zeitgeist at the dawn of the age of Aquarius. The Magical Childe was a hub for the blossoming New Age movement, from the birth of modern day Wicca and Satanism to the rebirth of Aleister Crowley’s Sex Magick and the dread Necronomicon’s Cult of Cthulu. Hear this secret history told by the people that were there and that made it happen.”
