Standing at the edge of the ship, contemplating a watery demise, Billy is, called back to reality, when his dead mentor Sid Diamond appears as a hand puppet. Sid forces Billy to re-enact his life as a puppet show, rekindling the passion Billy once had for puppets, people, and the dream of a life that sparkles. For anyone stuck in the middle-mid-career, mid-love, mid-life-this requiem for a golden boy shines a little light on the wonder of youth meeting the wisdom of age.
