9 is the Sci-fi/Adventure story about a group of small Stitchpunk/ragdolls that are awakened and face danger in a post-apocalyptic nightmare world where a mechanical Brain creates various monsters. 9 is the last ragdoll to be made, and with the others he must save "life." A good, very strange movie with good characters, plot, SFX and a compelling, frightening future.
5: 7?
2: I don't believe it!
5: You came back!
7: I never left. You finally decided to join the fight.
Trivia: 1 tells 9 that he led the others to their current hideout, which he refers to as "sanctuary". The building happens to be Notre Dame church, famously referred to "sanctuary" in "The Hunchback of Notre Dame."
Question: Why were the dolls sent out after the scientist made them? Why didn't they stay with the scientist so he could explain everything?

Answer: They were sent out into the world to create a new world for themselves. Every time the scientist created a doll, he transferred part of his soul into the doll bringing it to life but leaving him weaker. After creating 9 and transferring the piece of his soul into 9, he died so they would never have found out what they were created for.
