This ironic and comically subversive short animation tells the astonishing story of an encounter between a poodle and a women’s magazine. The poodle wants to learn how to obtain a new body and a new heart. A quote by Louis-Ferdinand Céline seems to epitomize the spirit of the film: ‘Love is a poodle’s chance of attaining the infinite.’
