Description:
Divided in four distinct stories, each one narrated by a unique technique and language, the show brings light upon the moment that we leave being childish behind. The universe exploited in the stories are a review of our memories, resigned by the theatrical language. They’re simple and poetic stories, told through the use of puppets, masks, animated objects and video projections.

Using delicate visual poetry, the performance brings four narratives that deal with growth, each one conveyed with a different technique, like the use of masks and object animation. Some have intergenerational dialogues, such as that of the boy who discovers the meaning of the word "memory" during a meeting with an elderly woman.
