But prosecutor Jo believes that someone powerful is behind the deceptively simple case. His investigation of the murder soon leads him into a seedy world of fan club eccentricities, excessive sex parties, and secretive dealings.

Life of a Mutt
Through seven scenes, the film follows the life and destinies of stray dogs from the margins of our society, leading us to reconsider our attitude towards them. Through the seven “wandering” characters that we follow at different ages, from birth to old age, we witness their dignified struggle for survival. At the cemetery, in an abandoned factory, in an asylum, in a landfill, in places full of sorrow, our heroes search for love and togetherness. By combining documentary material, animation and acting interpretation of the thoughts of our heroes, we get to know lives between disappointment and hope, quite similar to ours.
Flow
A filmmaker talks about his work and love life with an unseen friend behind the camera. We also watch four of his short films.
