Street theater performance

It is loneliness that prompts Emilio -- the last giant of his kind -- to turn his back on the seclusion of the mountains. Waylaying stilt-walkers thwart his purpose and take advantage of his innocence. Deprived of his liberty, Emilio yields to his fate. Liberation nears with a bunch of tumblers, who pass their time with gargantuan rings, outsize wooden tops, and windy wheels. An allegory of playful life manners, the tumblers show no fear; they are used to dealing with the unknown and in Emilio they find an associate with their world of ideas. Emilio opens his eyes and takes delight in this group and their gigantic toys, which seem like made for him.
