In this special, the internationally recognized mentalist and illusionist will try to take away a man’s prejudices against a certain immigrant group using his undercover psychological techniques that will inevitably involve some form of “sacrifice,” in an effort to create a “hero.” Brown will challenge this man’s beliefs in a clever yet subtle fashion.
Sacrifice is very relevant especially in the times that we are living in today. Derren proves yet again to be a master of psychological technique, illusion, and manipulation. Without giving too much away, there is a twist that will leave the audience spellbound at the end of Sacrifice, and rightfully so.
