SYNOPSIS:

Alberto Padua is a taxidermist, specialized in pet. Griefing owners come to him: they still want their beloved late animals to watch over them as they have done for years, in a different but yet very phisical and emotional way. He has this power. The protagonist of this original short-movie, a documentary that explores the poignant, poetic and sometimes hilarious truth that comes to light when death is both object and subject, comes across almost as a messianic figure in a way. One born and bred in Padova – Italy.
