The process of puppet making is narrated and is likened to making music. The puppet maker collects random objects and lays them out before starting to assemble his puppets. He then sets his tableau to music. The puppeteer’s work is very stripped back. The music and the musician chosen to be the soundtrack are also very stripped back.
A poetic glimpse into the world of puppet-making as we witness the birth of a puppet as it transforms from a collection of bits and pieces into a character with its own personality.
