No Strings Attached

One careless wish. One absurd journey. One simple truth.

After a night out, a college student’s curiosity leads him into a bizarre encounter with a mysterious “wizard” who accidentally transforms him into a puppet. Forced into an absurd and surreal journey, he meets other puppets and seeks out a powerful figure who may hold the key to reversing the curse. Along the way, he’s confronted with questions about identity, self-awareness, and what it truly means to be human.
