I read the blog already titled "Short film discovered!" and it gave me inspiration to ask a short film question of my own.

It was probably the best thing I have ever seen, and it moved me so deeply, but just like Outlaw01, I tuned in after the title and I have no clue what it was called. I'd seriously give my right arm to see it again. It went like this...

It was black and white, but not old enough to be black and white for real, they used it on purpose. It took place during some kind of war. There was a family, a mom, dad, boy, and girl. Every day food trucks would drive to the neighborhood and deliver provisions to the families, because food was scarce during this time of war. Anyway, so the little girl was playing outside when a man crawled up to her dressed like a dog. You could see his face, he was wearing reagular pants, with a tail pinned on, and a hoodie with the hood up, and he had ears pinned to the hood. He whimpered, and nudged her until she'd pat him. (We've all pretended to be dogs when we were little, it was just like that.) They played fetch, and became friends, and all the while the man acted like a dog. He never speaks throughout the entire movie. She has to come in and go to bed, so she bties the dog-man to a tree, and kisses him goodnight and all that. This occurs for weeks, it's as though the little girl actually has a dog. The dad doesn't apprive because he thinks the man will hurt her. The mom says it's harmless, that he's just a dog. The dad is like "But he's not a dog, he's a man!" The mom says "If he thinks he's a dog, then he's a dog." Life continues like this, with the whole family accepting the dog-man, excpet the dad. One day the food trucks stop coming, most likely they were stopped by the war. They are all starving, sitting around the table. They're talking about what they'd love to eat "steak tips" etc. The boy laughs and says "I heard in some countries they even eat dog." They all laugh. The dad gets up and gets his rifle. Everyone realizes what he's going to do. The girl is crying, and the mom tries to stop him saying "he's a man! he's a man! What are you doing?" and the dad just turns and says "if he thinks he's a dog, then he's a dog." Then he goes out back and shoots the dog-man, who remained dog-like even to the end, not crying, but whimpering.

This film seriously broke my heart. I would love to see it again. Please help, if you can. Thanks to Outlaw01 for the inspiration to ask for help.
