Caprichos de Trapo - Pablo Sáez
A poetic homage to the popular puppeteer. From the discovery of Pedro Vidal's diary, a young artist reconstructs his story and, behind his mask, brings his memories to life through the device of “theater within the theater”. The original “Teatro de la Bicicleta”, by the old puppeteer, proposes shifts in perspective for the deconstruction of the puppeteer's craft.
