Flim Flam: Houdini and the Hereafter

A stage play based on actual events. In the summer of 1922, Harry Houdini and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle team to investigate psychic mediums for the Scientific American committee. Their friendship is challenged when Conan Doyle champions a beautiful and seductive psychic as authentic. Houdini is determined to prove that she is a phony, until she apparently contacts Houdini's beloved dead mother, and he must confront his own beliefs about life-after-death.
