​Based on the classic book by Jonathan Swift.

After his boat was capsized in the sea, Gulliver finds himself at the shores of Lilliput: a country of little people with great wishes. For the Lilliputs, Gulliver is a giant, omnipotent, and certainly can fulfill all their wishes. Gulliver tries to behave as a polite guest, and to satisfy the small Lilliputs. The performance combines acting with the use of models, mechanical toys, tiny machines, puppets and film. The theatrical language, rich and unique, creates an intimate, surprising experience, full of imagination.
