The kings and queens of the puppet theatre do not mind being attached to strings, but wooden marionette Pulcinella cannot take it. So he decides to escape alone. Surviving on flower petals, he finds that freedom is sweeter than anything else and he is not even afraid to die when the weather turns to cold and he is buried under the snow… but fortunately marionettes don’t die!
