Meeting Your Maker

A feel-good movie about a puppet that kills himself. Meeting Your Maker is a darkly whimsical and deeply emotional short film that follows Otis, a beloved puppet on a long-running children’s show, as he faces an existential crisis just before the series’ milestone 300th episode. Set against the vibrant chaos of a TV studio and the surreal backdrop of a puppeteer’s inner world, the story explores themes of identity, burnout, and the creative struggle, blurring the line between performer and creator in (hopefully) poignant and unexpectedly funny ways.

Directed by Gregory J.M. Kasunich
