Earlier this week, 1.5 million people filled the streets of Berlin, to watch a several-day performance by France's Royal de Luxe street theatre company titled "The Berlin Reunion".
Part of the celebrations of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Reunion show featured two massive marionettes, the Big Giant, a deep-sea diver, and his niece, the Little Giantess.
... The storyline of the performance has the two separated by a wall, thrown up by "land and sea monsters"...
...The Big Giant has just returned from a long and difficult - but successful - expedition to destroy the wall, and now the two are walking the streets of Berlin, seeking each other after many years apart...

I saw their performance at Nantes, it's one of the greatest things i've ever seen! I was in the verge of tears when they finally reunited...
This performance, adapted to the history of the Berlin wall, Wow! it must be so touching to people who actually where separated from their families during those years!
There's not enough room for walls! Never again!
Wish I was there too, man
