In an underground arena of felt gladiators, a broken champion's savage memorial match unites his ragtag puppet crew to fight repossession and honor his folded legacy.
Synopsis
In the seedy underbelly of the Meporial circuit, felt fighters brawl nightly for glory and stuffing until one gets folded, flamed or emotionally repossessed. When legendary champ Mepo is stitched up and left for scrap after a brutal title loss, his surviving crew of misfit puppets stages an underground memorial brawl to keep his legacy from being auctioned off by human handlers. What begins as a cathartic slugfest spirals into a raw reckoning with loss, identity and the brutal cost of staying upright in a world that loves to tear you down. As rival factions threaten to cancel the memorial, the puppets confront their own frayed seams and the humans pulling strings behind the curtain. High-stakes bouts mix slapstick carnage with genuine heartbreak, culminating in a final ring war that decides whether Mepo's spirit lives on or gets permanently repossessed. The film blends visceral puppet combat with biting satire on fame, failure and the show that must go on.
The story
Mepo dominates the felt circuit until a savage final round leaves him folded and repossessed by corporate handlers; his devastated crew swears to stage one last memorial brawl in his honor.
Rival puppets, human exploiters and internal doubts threaten to derail the memorial as the crew trains through grief, stitches and betrayals, forcing each to confront what Mepo really meant to them.
The chaotic memorial match erupts in a no-holds-barred finale where the puppets win back Mepo's legacy on their own terms, ending with a bittersweet victory that redefines what it means to stay standing.

Cold open
INT. MEPO'S MEMORIAL ARENA - NIGHT A spotlight slams onto a blood-stained canvas. Felt bodies fly. MEPO, a battered 3-foot heavyweight with one eye hanging by a thread, trades haymakers with a towering rival. MEPO This ain't repossession, pal. This is retirement. The rival clocks him. Stuffing explodes like confetti. Mepo hits the mat. The crowd of puppets and humans roars. A bell DINGs. Human handlers rush in with scissors. HANDLER He's done. Bag him. Mepo's crew watches from the shadows, eyes glowing with rage and grief.
