This is the plot of the film according to Wikipedia:
In the present day, immortal 1,000-year-old Doctor Parnassus (Christopher Plummer) leads a traveling theater troupe that offers audience members a chance to go beyond reality through a magical mirror in his possession. Members of the troupe include a sleight of hand expert, Anton (Andrew Garfield), and a dwarf (Verne Troyer), Percy Parnassus had been able to guide the imagination of others through a deal with the Devil (Tom Waits), who now comes to collect on the arrangement, targeting the doctor's daughter (Lily Cole). The troupe, which is joined by a mysterious outsider named Tony (portrayed by Ledger, Depp, Law, and Farrell),embark through parallel worlds to rescue the girl.
The trailer, meanwhile, starts off with a rather lengthy presentation of director Terry Gilliam's previous films such as 12 Monkeys, Brazil, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Brothers Grimm and others. But the images from the Imaginarium coming next are really fantastic! I found an accompanying video of stills of Heath while he was filming the movie. I really love everything Heath did. He is sorely missed.
