A man executed for killing a king's dog comes back as that dog, carrying the weight of his human guilt into an animal body that can't speak it. The premise sounds like a setup for cosmic punishment, but what hits is watching him navigate a world that has no mercy for what he was, only for what he is now. One episode, deliberately short, leaves you sitting with the strange tenderness of a creature trying to be worthy of a second chance it never asked for.
A man kills the king's pet dog and is put to death for the crime. He does not stay dead: he is reborn as a dog, yet he keeps the memories of the life he lived as a human. The film is a supernatural drama with a psychological bent, built on the strange position of a person carrying a human past inside an animal's body after paying for the death of an animal with his own life.
