Seaside (nowhere near the sea), puppeteers Judy and Punch are trying to resurrect their marionette show on the brink of an anarchic mob rule. When Punch accidentally kills their baby during a drinking binge, his wife Judy, having suffered a violent beating, teams up with a band of outcast heretics to enact revenge on Punch and the entire town.

A dark fairy tale style story about a puppet theatre in a small town set in a period of history that is indeterminable but visually hand in hand with the tales of Grimm and Hans Christian Anderson. Real-life Punch and Judy run a puppet show for a village of superstitious inhabitants who enjoy the torment of anyone they believe to be a witch. When Punch accidentally kills their baby and murders Judy, Punch and the village must pay the price. A dark and clever reworking of a story we all thought we knew.—perdyhorse
