Storyline
A shamed puppeteer specializing in children’s entertainment comes back to his deteriorated childhood abode, where he encounters his unsavory stepfather. Driven by the desire to obliterate ‘Possum,’ a grotesquely deformed spider puppet he keeps in a weathered brown leather case, his psyche is inundated with haunting fragments of recollections and unsettling hallucinations.
