A darkly poignant animated short that uses the meeting between Death and an innocent child to explore mortality, loss, and the weight of existence itself.

Day in, day out, Mr. Grimm is busy with his job as the Reaper, harvesting people's lives. One day, his monotonous existence is interrupted by the doorbell. It's a little girl. She wants her cat back. Little does she know that she's the next life on Mr. Grimm's list.
