Crushed computers, shattered screens and tangled cables – this is how the world came to be in the new production by Itim Ensemble, an international artistic collaboration with Klaipėda Theater, Lithuania.
Based on the unique ‘PuppetCinema’ theatrical language – an innovative mix of puppetry, object theater and live-feed cinema developed by Zvi Sahar – viewers embark on a journey into an electric universe where computer parts become miniature characters and electronics turn into urban landscapes.

In this futuristic saga, little robot ׳Ki׳ and his dog ׳Batty׳ – two tiny electronic friends – live in a constantly-recharging electric world.

Life in the electric city is vibrant and society thrives on non-stop energy consumption, but a first-time occurrence threatens its very existence: RAIN.

How will the electronic creatures react to water?
Will an ecological catastrophe in the form of a sudden short circuit?
Will the tiny robot and his dog companion find their way back to safety?

For the first time, the magic of PuppetCinema can be experienced on an interactive digital platform, designed in collaboration with the EKO company.

With a simple click of a button or light touch of the screen, spectators can direct their attention as they please; Would you like to focus on the video or its making? The story or behind the scenes? You get to choose and enjoy, right in the comfort of your own living room!

In order to provide the best viewing experience, the show was recorded in super-high definition, by a professional team over a span of two weeks.
