Marionettes is a dark and moody film about about 11-year-old Lola, who is desperate to belong to a sinister group of children, playing marionettes in a theatre production. Once the children start identifying with their characters, they gradually turn into the identical puppets they play. When the marionettes plan to murder an innocent woman, Lola has to ask herself how much she is willing to sacrifice in order to belong.
