“A special nothing” by the puppetry troupe “Pseftia me Aftia”

Performance with the use of hand puppets for a “nothing” that gives everything. It’s an adaptation of the cartoon serier “Mutts” by Patrick Mc Donell and his book with the title “The gift of nothing”.
Mooch the cat desperately wants to find a gift for his friend Earl the dog, but Earl already has everything. “What do you give a guy who has everything?” The answer, of course, is nothing!
