The Psychedelic Puppet Show – Canada

The Psychedelic Puppet Show is a surreal satire that confronts the mental health crisis through absurdity and childlike wonder. When Edgar is admitted to a psychedelic puppet hospital, he undergoes bizarre, revelatory treatments that unravel his understanding of sanity itself. As the line between therapy and control dissolves, a playful rebellion emerges—challenging the authority of Western psychiatry and imagining liberation through imagination.
