The film gives voice to porcelain figurines struggling to survive in a world obsessed with perfection. Some never passed quality control, others were chosen but faced unexpected challenges at the hands of their owners. Through confessional monologues, they share their stories - absurd, tragic and surprisingly familiar. Mixing irony with existential musings, the film shows how, in a world where beauty is becoming disposable, the pressure to live up to the ideal only accelerates its own destruction.
