Features: The puppet dolls perform a magnificent dance, yet they cannot leave the silk threads controlling their hands and feet; their lives are lonely, yet they also have simple joys; because they have grown accustomed to the life of a puppet. Please smile at them. Our world is a vast doll factory, where countless masters select countless puppet dolls. Who can guarantee they are not one of them? Long, long ago, there was a doll castle. The castle's master produced magnificent puppet dolls in the underground factory beneath the castle to meet the needs of the social machine. Later, the castle fell into ruin, losing its former luxury and splendor, replaced only by a feast of bats and mice. The castle master also disappeared. One day, people discovered that the purple roses outside the castle walls had bloomed again. The doll castle was once more aglow with light, and dancing figures flashed in the grand hall, accompanied by beautiful music. The castle was resurrected, but this time, its master was the relentless doll factory, producing puppet dolls.

Tin dolls and wind-up princesses Every girl dreams that dolls could have porcelain skin and silk hair, wearing round-toe shoes and behaving whimsically in the castle. The secret of the doll factory spread with the resurrection of the castle. A timid girl, carrying pain in her heart, climbed the cliffs and entered the castle gates. Passing through the forgotten garden, she arrived before the magic giant machine of the doll factory to fulfill a wish only she knew. New puppet dolls emerged from the castle, carrying their usual beautiful smiles. The forgotten garden and the doll factory made them remember only the present, no longer needing the past or the future. Her life could only be granted by the one who wound the clockwork; she was encased in a magnificent tin shell; she dared not go far, for she did not know when the clockwork would stop; she could not feel the sincere world because tin was cold and had no feelings.
