"Magic" is a song by Swedish duo The Sound of Arrows from their debut album Voyage.
In the video all adults disappeared and children live in their magic world.
Shot in Spain, in countryside two hours from Madrid, Oskar Gullstrand explains that it is meant to be "childlike and youthful, and true to the song. When we were thinking about the video, Stefan and I first came up for about 200 ideas for a feature film. This is meant to be the trailer for that film."
