A dark parable about abandonment and systemic cruelty that uses a girl's bond with her dog and a canine uprising to explore themes of racism, rejection, and the powerless's violent reclamation of agency.

13 year old Lili fights to protect her dog Hagen, and is devastated when her father sets Hagen free on the streets. Still innocently believing love can conquer any difficulty, Lili sets out to save her dog. Failing in his desperate efforts to find his beloved owner, Hagen joins a canine revolt leading a revolution against their human abusers.
