Synopsis
A virtuoso feat of puppeteering, Strings is an otherworldly fable of adventure, bondage and liberation; of love and war, destiny and vitality, identity and common humanity. For not everything is what it seems in this land of adventure, where the threads of destiny are woven together by unseen hands. The wooden actors are living puppets, jostling for control of a kingdom after a monarch's suicide. The son of a king, Hal Tara, sets out on a journey to revenge the death of his father. To his surprise, he discovers the truth of his own people, and- where he least expects it- he finds true love.
