Once he was a tree. Now he has to live as a man.

Thanks to his legs, he can move. He can use his eyes to look at you. He can use his mouth to make sounds to communicate. But inside there is only hunger.

Pinocchio is a seemingly light performance about growing up and (over)living, inspired by Carlo Collodi's 1883 book Le avventure di Pinocchio. Storia di un burattino.

We see the famous wooden cyborg as a contemporary character trying to grow up in an abundance of choices. Despite this limitlessness, he finds no satisfaction anywhere. Outside the reality of the unwieldy body in which he drags himself, everything seems fluid or ephemeral. And even his own body can hardly be contained. Perhaps - in all this busyness - he just yearns to be a tree again?

> Italian dialogue, with Dutch surtitles
