Dirty Granny Tales
In an ideal society, a monster disrupts the harmony until the eponymous philanthropist appears as a savior. But is he truly a hero? Moving beyond their role as narrators, the musicians are now the lead characters, utilizing live looping techniques to transform into one-person orchestras.
This multi-sensory experience merges 2D animation projections, puppet theater and physical dance into a dark, gothic fable. It is a world born from a romantic yet decaying music box, where every note raises a question and every shadow hides a truth.
