Synopsis

Luka's obsessive routines are played out under the anxious gaze of his sister Lucy. She thinks Luka needs fixing as every time she disturbs his routine, Luka falls apart. Literally.

One evening- battered by his springs and rejections- Lucy finally loses her patience and runs away. Stumbling in the forest, she discovers a clockwork soldier in a shack. When she manages to fix his head, Lucy thinks she's found the solution to her problems at home.
