Description
After turning the TeCA stage into the classroom of a theatre school in O Inesquecível Professor (2022), the actor, writer and stage director Pedro Gil takes us now to a holiday resort in the midst of a Kenyan savannah. This tourist haven is suddenly seized by a group of hooded people. Surrounded by the police, the group decides to make hostages of everyone. As the days pass, the tourists and the resort staff come together and develop bonds. These bonds keep getting stronger, until the attack is brought to an end. Considering that a zebra’s stripes should never mix together, some guests expect the staff to return to their work, while others demand that work and leisure should be shared by all. But there is more: among the resort’s guests is a Portuguese family. A family held hostage by its own problems.
