Kouklotheatro is a mini-series of short episodes, which takes advantage of the interaction that YouTube offers, between the creators and the audience. In this series, it is you, the viewers, who will determine the course of the story. Not just with predetermined choices (A or B), but you will take the whole plot in your hands. You, then, will give the background of the characters, add new characters, "write" the next events. The project is difficult and ambitious, but we want to dare it. The puppets are in your hands now...
