(2006)
The Caretaker, an infirm elderly man, lies in a hospital bed whilst an evil robot wreaks mayhem in the city outside. His only companion is a superhero doll;
a boyhood toy. To the old man’s surprise a collection of miniature theatre stages appear on the hospital floor on which we see moments from the
caretaker’s past which reveal a disturbing link between The Caretaker, his superhero doll and the evil robot.
