SYNOPSIS
Gizaki is a piece created during COVID-19 lockdown and influenced by it. Two characters coexist in a room and analyse the human being: a reflection about the mechanism that lay under us, on a physical level (shape, complexity of movement that people have) and interior level (emotions, everything that you can’t see but you can feel) and about the bridge that unites both worlds. 

What is true and what’s a lie when we coexist with the interior and the exterior? Ambiguity is very present. You can see people, but you won’t know if they feel or they don’t, if they are happy or they are not, if they smile because of emotion or a mere execution. We find ourselves in front of another type of person who has another type of logic.
