Magic Card tells the story of a computer expert who travels to Pavia (a idyllic town near Milan) to follow his foster sister and her vain, ineffectual, and filthy rich boyfriend, as the latter prepares to buy and level an entire street to turn it into casinos and karaokes, much to the dismay of the locals, represented by a forthright lawyer. Stepping in as a mediator is a rich Chinese businessman, with whose daughter the computer expert falls in love.
