The Most Beautiful Things in the World takes as its starting point a text by Valter Hugo Mãe, a dialogue between grandfather and grandson about beauty and the need to believe. A praise of curiosity, learning, knowledge and care.
The importance of a precious relationship, where "inventing questions is learning" and which here takes shape through a choreographic dialogue between grandmother and granddaughter, in a relationship between puppet and performer.
The story of a girl who, within her grandmother's embrace, seeks to find answers to life's mysteries. The grandmother, who has the air of a treasure hunter, reveals to her the greatest of all to cure sadness and farewell: enchantment. A profoundly moving tale about the strength of affection and the memory of grandparents.
