One of the best animal cartoons of all time. No wonder I wrote such a headline. This movie is literally in the heart. It is impossible to imagine how much is depicted here. Despite its hard foundation, all the reality of life is certainly reliably shown, this cartoon also perfectly shows the power of love and hope. Sometimes I even want to say that true loyalty, dedication, true love for the living and not in vain search for a single ray of light in the devouring all and all darkness possess animals, not people. Delightfully spelled out the main characters, stunningly drawn. If you look closely, the whole essence of the story lies in two dogs, and in each of them is contrasted.
Labrador Rough symbolizes every living creature who is desperate, who would rather go into battle to the death than trust someone not to feel the new pain of betrayal. Yes, the fear of being betrayed by someone who was a friend is one of the brightest aspects. I know that by myself. I was always afraid. That was my only fear. But sooner or later it must be overcome. Even if you are perceptive, even if you feel the nature of a person and are not naive, still a little, but vulnerable. Not everyone in the world is insensitive, so it is necessary to look.
Roof's friend, a small terrier, on the contrary, is the complete opposite of his comrade. He's not discouraged, he's curious. Literally burning with this great power. It is thanks to his loving master in the past that he is sure that it is only necessary to open up, all the light, all selflessness, all the warmth is embedded in this small creature.
Cats, dogs, parrots. All living beings are one and connected to each other. It's natural. This is a juicy world in which there is something from the “White Fang”, from Shakespeare stories, the stories of Edgar Poe. The ending may be ambiguous, but still the soul is alive.
This cartoon, “Inhabitants of the Hills”, “The Cat’s Family” (Felide or the Adventure of the Detective Cat), “The Secret of the Rats” are some of the most intelligent, truly living works.
