The
Puppeteer
Description:
The Puppeteer captures the art of Igor Fokin, an extraordinarily
talented artist and performer whose stage was a street corner
in Harvard Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts. When Igor arrived
in America from the stifling confines of the former Soviet Union,
he spoke very little English, had few resources and no job prospects.
Formally trained by the last surviving master of the pre-Revolutionary
Russian Marionette Theater in St. Petersberg Russia, he was
finally free to pursue his passion. With the tilt of a wrist
and the fllick of a finger, he magically breathed life into
each of his hand-carved marionettes, captivating the imagination
of both adults and children.
