“They were calling him the first finger puppeteer on prime time. And what was I? Another wannabe doing grip strengthening exercises in front of the TV.”

‘Ten in Hand’ is an offbeat, dark comedy-horror which blends the mundane with the surreal, following the contrasting fortunes of former finger puppeteer duo, Tony and Matthias. Watching his former friend Tony become the most successful finger puppeteer in the game, Matthias’ dreams curdle into resentment and disappointment. But a new arrival in the theatre bar where Matthias works forces him to confront his feelings of inadequacy - and just how flexible his phalanges really are.
