Life in Plastic highlights films in which living dolls teach us what it means to be human. Placed in our world, these dolls become vessels for exploring curiosity, play, and the search for emotional connections. From the dark surrealist use of stop-motion puppeteering in Alice to Westworld's first cinematic use of CGI, these films stake out imaginative and tactile approaches for blurring the boundaries between reality and playland; bringing audiences into their fantasy plastic worlds.
