What the... Hen!

Directing: Joanna Deja

Synopsis

The story of Łukasz Puczko, a renowned puppeteer and Poland’s only constructor of biomechanical hybrid puppets, and Sabina, a 16-year-old refugee from Ukraine. Łukasz, known for his work at international festivals, settles in Solniki, where he creates a 2 m high hen to protest a planned 4-hectare industrial poultry farm near the village. Sabina, initially reserved, joins him as an assistant and discovers her passion and talent for puppetry. During their European tour, Sabina performs for the first time with a puppet she created herself, and together they captivate audiences with their innovative and emotionally resonant performances.
