Witch Way Love (original title "Un Amour de Sorcière") is a 1997 French fantasy film written and directed by René Manzor.[1][2]
Plot
[edit]Morgane descends from a long line of witches. Her son Arthur has an innate gift for witchcraft. Yet Morgane wants him to become a normal human being without supernatural powers. There is only one way to achieve that. She needs to carry out an ancient ritual which requires the presence of a person who was born under a very specific constellation. The US-American inventor Michael meets all requirements. Morgane takes him to her family's castle in France. Meanwhile, the evil sorcerer Molok has a different plan. He kidnaps Arthur and tries to make him his successor.
