In the year in which we celebrate 50 years after the 25th of April, O Teatro da Caverna wanted to talk about freedom. Does total freedom exist? Are we really free, or have the forms of oppression just changed, modernized, become more sophisticated, more subtle? What chains bind us and prevent us from being truly free? To live free? Are freedom and responsibility equivalent? Today, we live within the meshes of networks, to which we voluntarily mortgage our freedom. Do we still have the time and ability to dream? What, for us, is the color of freedom?

Once upon a time there was a scarecrow who found a turtle. Once upon a time there was a straw house that roamed the oceans. A sea of plastic and a skinny president. A lot of waste and a lumpy cod.

Palhinhas, the story of a scarecrow is an adventure through the marine universe that allows us to look at the waste accumulated at the bottom of the sea, uniting its inhabitants in the search for a common benefit.

In the Portuguese parliament, between the deputies’ benches and the tribune with members of the Government, there is, exactly in the middle of the room, a desk with nothing around it where two employees work who have the mission of transcribing everything that is said there. Through his fingers, speeches, interventions, asides, insubordination and even gestures are recorded. There are hundreds of thousands of pages that record debates, constituent assemblies, votes, advances and setbacks in social, labor and human rights. Guide for a possible country is a show created from these records, to tell the story of the last fifty years of our democracy.
