Mulu and Tsegay
Moria Ben-Avot, Shacharit Yerushulmi
A joint project based on the book by Tamar Verta-Zahavi
One night, when the moon was full, a huge fire started in the village in Africa where Mulu and his sister Tsegay lived. With only a bright blue stone, they set out bravely on a long and magical journey to a distant land.
In the unique world of puppet theater, clay and natural materials tell a tale of growing up, friendship and love, based on real stories of African migrants on their way to Israel.
