What happens when others see you differently?
And when you look different to others?
Guyi-Guyi is a crocodile.
It is not fierce or ravenous.
Guyi-Guyi does not know how to behave like the others.
Guyi-Guyi must learn how to act to be a "great crocodile"
Guyi-Guyi is a crocodile who, by a chance of nature, was born into a family of ducks. Guyi-Guyi lives happily with his family until one day is lost and found by a crocodile. When he learns that the crocodiles eat ducks, he goes through great difficulties in order to be himself.
Guyi-Guyi is a free adaptation of the story of "Ugly Duckling", which allows us to stage in an interesting and fun, the theme of the search for identity, an issue very much on a company as global as today.
The contrast between the characters helps us to represent the fear of difference and prejudice we throw on those who behave differently than we expect.
