A warm heartfelt short movie exploring the coming of age of a man as he navigates his life experimenting tragedy, loss, love, fatherhood, and the chaotic world struck by random events, but that end up governing our lives.
The main character is great, as he calmly, even in a Buddhist-like stance, confronts whatever life throws at him with his faithful dog by his side.
Well worth a watch.

Excellent little gem
Endearing Work of Love
What a beautiful film «El perro que no calla». Everything, the drawings, the music, the people who live and daily do, without so much questioning the order of the Cosmos, without so much resting, commanding, partying, accumulating... The dialogue of the umbrellas, the evolution of Sebas, the owner of the old dog that does not shut up, the plague that literally breaks and bends the community, except for those who worship their bubble-masks... Endearing. When Sebastián watered his little plants, almost at the end, I cried, because I know that it's up to all of us to leave and I would not want to go so soon, to find another corner where my plants flourish.
Good
It has nice potentials but it's flawed. It tackles so many subjects and has many implications in a way that makes it messy and unclear. It's so simple yet so confusingly complicated. It's so beautifully shot though, cinematography is just awesome. Lead performance is real.
