Puppet - 3 Plumes

As part of the Méliscènes 2025 Festival

Marcello, our young hero, doesn't grow up quite like other children. In his solitary, eccentric and incomprehensible world, he spends hours contemplating the flight of feathers in the air and collecting piles of stones, which he meticulously arranges and stacks in defiance of the laws of balance. Truly bizarre...

And yet, if we change our gaze, we can discover the wonderful stories that inhabit him. Marcello has the magical power to breathe life and lightness into the objects around him. His naïveté, his authenticity, his lack of malice and his intuition open up new avenues that lead him where his scholarly brothers don't look. An anti-hero par excellence, considered the village idiot, this adult with the soul of a child conceals unsuspected treasures.

Inspired by Grimm's fairy tale The Three Feathers, and straddling the border between dream and silent film, this poetic and optimistic show opens a discreet door to "those who are not normal".
A subtle reflection on difference and disability that helps us appreciate the talents hidden in everyone.
