Alice!
It's late

Fabrizio Pallara

A puppet theatre with a big clock marking the time, a family of white rabbits and a big hurry.
It's late!" the father keeps repeating as he takes little Alice to school. She doesn't understand all that hurry, she tries to follow her father and obey the rules until a mishap stops her. Running to school, Alice falls, and this fall becomes an opportunity to discover another dimension, where time stands still and the view is wider.
A puppet show in which puppets and stuffed animals inhabit different scenes and the encounters that follow one another on the way to the conquest of a new consciousness follow those of Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. A look at the dimension of time in the relationship between generations, inspired by Chabot's reflections, in which children's freedom and ability to live in the present moment and imagine the future are threatened by an adult world that drags them into an insubstantial reality of speed and deadlines.

Running time: 60 minutes
