I can only assume the previous reviewer (U.N. Owen) assumes that ventriloquism is akin to Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog and must not have been paying attention to the movie because the scene at the beginning of the film to which this reviewer refers to as "Jump to present day.." is of Sandra greeting her Mother at the cab (not Sandra helping her sister out of a cab) and at the home "Pedro" asks the Mother (not sister) if she bought him anything.
This documentary featuring ventriloquist Sandra Luckow and her figure (the correct term for a ventriloquist's dummy) has Sandra exploring the goals and careers of both established as well as up and coming ventriloquists. Through this journey she finds herself at the annual Ventriloquist Convention (which has now been running for over 30 years and visited by professionals from all over the world).
Sandra takes a light hearted and entertaining look into the hopes and dreams of ventriloquists and their different approaches to utilising this ancient craft.
An accomplished and skilled ventriloquist herself, Sandra's pal "Pedro" (with little to no lip movement from Sandra) is very real despite his unusual appearance and banters with other vents in a jovial manner.
For an insight to the world of ventriloquism this movie is a must. Candid and well presented Sandra and Pedro offer the viewer a real world into this small world of the entertainment industry.
