The story starts on a strange morning, when all at once, the sun doesn’t rise round, but square.
The animals decide whether they are pro or against this “new sun”.
In a wooden mini theatre, objects are arranged in such a way that a new reality is created. As a viewer you go on an imaginative, poetic, visual journey. The suitcase that functions as a theatre is full of abstract shapes, sets and characters. The audience is suddenly confronted with an absurd and unexpected non-existent world. Two dimensional becomes three dimensional, geometrical shapes become animals, the surface gains depth. A new world surfaces and the audience gets room for association.
