In 2004 director Matteo Bellinelli from the Swiss-Italian TV TSI approached me for a documentary on me and my magic. I managed to include information that would educate the public about magic, its history, science, psychology, and also some of my talented colleagues. I'm happy to say that this is not just an ego-tripping showcase, a danger every "documentary" runs, but an informative and entertaining look at the art and science of magic.
You'll get a glimpse of me at my home, as well as on tour in Paris, Milano, Saragossa, and of course my home town Basel, where I perform and meet magic friends. We visit the Playing Card Museum in Issy les Moulineaux, George Proust's Musée de la curiosity in the Marais, arguable Paris's most charming quarter, a magic convention in Spain, see Juan Tamariz, Vanni Bossi, Manolo Tena, Bebel, Yves Carbonnier and other remarkable magicians perform and give original insights into magic, plus lots more.
I think that this documentary, whose original title Il giardino dei giochi segreti ("garden of secret games") was inspired by an old Italian manuscript on magic, gives a truly inspiring view of the world of conjuring.
This is the version subtitled in English and called The Secret World of Magic, which never aired, as far as I know. The original Italian version was broadcasted in 2004 on various channels in Switzerland and Italy. The first airing was on a Sunday evening, 8 pm prime time, on TSI1.

Documentario incantevole, lascia un antico e consueto sapore di meraviglia. Roberto Giobbi è uno dei rarissimi esempi del prototipo di Prestigiatore. Ci siamo conosciuti alla Silvan Magic Academy, era il suo 40° compleanno. Oltre a partecipare allo stage, io curai anche le riprese video che conservo con grande cura e devozione nel mio archivio personale. Con modestia, invio un caro saluto.
