A spin-off piece from the new "Dokowodoubutsuru" that will be performed at the Kitakyushu Performing Arts Center in October. Seeing and being seen is something that does not change even when the stage is a zoo. Freedom can be found by coming down from the stage, but this will lead to the realization of being caught in the invisible cage of time. Although the world is a big place, it is no different from the inside of a cage. This piece visualizes and expresses ideas on how to share values and wanting to be free due to not being free.
