    beautiful

    A dog and its dark memories about forms of bulying from its owner. Becoming circus actor, it preserves deep fears and high insecurity about people. But, one of artistic moments gives the fair answer and the beginning of a beautiful friendship. So, just seductive animation, from story to the drawings and touching message.
