Excellent piece of Scottish animation with a familiar yet interestingly futuristic twist. The story is set in a post-apocalyptic Scotland were few people remain alive and very little will grow. A couple try to survive on a remote farm with their dope smoking talking dog. It sounds an insane idea but is carried off superbly well, the landscape is barren and eerie and really hits home the loneliness of living in an area like this. I also found the fact that it is set in Scotland in an area not unlike in features to were i grew up all the more intriguing as it made me think about how i would survive in a similar situation. I'd definitely make sure i had a dog like that too. The main theme as the story develops is depression, loneliness and despair at the state the planet is left in.
