In December 2011, a security guard was killed by a pack of stray dogs prowling in a poor neighbourhood, in the Bogota suburbs. This tragic news inspired the Columbian director to make a one-of-a-kind animated film, taking on weighty issues of body, wildness, and territory. The film reminds one of a dark, disturbing thriller. The howl of hungry dogs, heard in the background, becomes a terrifying leitmotif of the whole picture.
