GUTTER SOUP
A Satirical Puppet Musical Feature-Film
Gutter Soup is a satirical puppet musical feature-film that looks to bring awareness to the resurgence in antisemitism and fascism by looking at the consequences of forgetting and trivializing history. With a cast of only puppets and set in a world where a rise in “Nazi Chic fashion” has created a resurgence in the use of the swastika, this project humorously examines how the upper-class and those with social influence control what is considered fashionable and on-trend, and how that trickles down to impact the poor. All references to Nazism are purely satiric, and serve as a voice to remind everyone of the dangers of repeating history.
In a city of singing puppets, Juancho, a young deli cashier living in the slums of the city, struggles to make ends meet while smuggling illegal items on the side to take care of his Mamà. When Nazi Chic begins resurfacing in the upper echelons of fashion, Juancho is tasked with smuggling the remains of Hitler’s Heil Arm to the grandest socialite party of the century: the Third Riech-themed Grand Tanzen Soirée.
We have shot and edited a proof of concept for the film, which can be found below!
