Bastard!

In his own unparalleled way Duda Paiva creates a magical world in Bastard! where dance and foam puppets tell the story of a confused artist who tries to find a way out of the rubble heap of existence. Bastard! is a free adaptation of the satirical novel L’Arrache-coeur by French writer and singer Boris Vian.
