Little Amal on her Walk, arriving in Antwerpen, Belgium 🇧🇪 (8 Oct. 2021)

Little Amal is a puppet of 3,5 meter (almost 12 feet). She represents a refugee girl, coming from Syria and is on a quest to find her mother. Amal means hope in Arabic.
Today, 8 October 2021, she arrived in Antwerpen, Belgium. Before, Little Amal visited several other European cities and will end her "Walk" in Manchester, U. K., on 3 November 2021.
This spectacle asks attention for all of the refugee children and is a plea to give them a good new life, to let them feel welcome and accepted. A lot of the refugee children are never reunited with their mother or family in general.

The skills of the artists are amazing. The person inside? He's controlling Amal's head and face movements and is walking on STILTS to let her walk fluently.
