TRAILER

 

Synopsis

When the world’s greatest sign-spinner goes missing, it’s up to a ragtag team of misfit nonconformist oddballs to search for him and get him inducted into the sign-spinning hall of fame. Along the way they’ll go toe-to-toe with a jealous ex-wife, an incompetent bodyguard, and blatant disregard for the wellbeing of puppets.
