Goodness, I started almost crying even before this video was over! I am 25 years old and the pain of losing a pet is a horrible thing. This was nicely done.

I recently saw this segment at a children's television screening in Boston and have to say that I was completely impressed by how well this video handled the concept of death. It is just so REAL. In the U.S. we unfortunately tend to overly-sanitize children's television and most children's television takes place in an always-happy/fantasy world. I like this version so much more and wish that we could start doing work like this. Thank you so much - this video is truly lovely. Wonderful video :)
