Come and discover this magical tent, where you can meet Jácome, the inventor of impossible things...
Jácome is an inventor. But those who know him well say that he is also a poet, a dreamer and a revolutionary. Jácome's life is very simple, because Jácome is a simple man.
Estranhões e Bizarrocos is a story about friendship, about the complications and simplicity of human relationships. It shows us how the desire to understand and accept each other depends on us. And that friendship is often hidden in the strangest and most unexpected creatures.
The day Jácome felt lost and abandoned by those he considered his friends, he discovered that a revolution was needed to change the planet...
