5 toys. A Puppet King. A desire to be more than toys.

The Toyshop was once a place where children laughters could be heard and the cash register sang.

Now, it is but the final resting place for 5 defective toys, ruled by a Puppet King that no one has ever seen.

However, the usual calamity of the toyshop was suddenly disrupted by the visit of demolition notice. Toys turn against each other; Deeds become mere means to an end. In their struggle to fulfil their last wishes, the toys slowly uncover that the only way to be free is to rid themselves of the stench of toys.

玩具店本是个没有烦恼的地方,收银机清脆的响声和童儿的笑声则是它的主旋律。

就有这么一天,店主突然离开了玩具店。不知是他健忘了,或是走得太匆忙,玩具店里只留下5个玩具,由一个从未露面的玩具王统治。

闲,惑,欲。

一张突如其来的拆迁通知书把玩具们最深处的渴望从欲海中捞出。命运抵触,意图相克,他们为逃脱自己的宿命开始了一场冒险的征途。
