However, Steve, the puppeteer who gave Winney its movements for a popular talk show, discovers that the character's creator has made a pact with the Devil to bring Winney to life. Steve alone knows the truth and stands in the way of Winney's world domination. Based on the popular short film Winney: A Cute Candidate by Florence Deygas and Olivier Kuntzel.
