Jon, the chaotic student/caretaker of Frank the Dog, breaks a precious artifact and has to redeem himself through a series of bizarre, yet playful, challenges and games.
If successful Jon will acquire the status of ‘master’, repair the artefact and redeem himself.
Along the way Jon is hampered in his quest; with set-backs, twists, turns, and the interference of the sinister Cyprian Londt.
Funny, fast paced, stylish, ‘clowning’, set in a ‘home-made’, magical, world full of contraptions, illusions and mystifying objects.
