“Laika and Rover” short film

A lonely, forgotten dog has been left on Mars until one day, a mission-driven rover arrives and gives her the chance to finally return home.

“Laika and Rover” was inspired by the true (and tragic) story of Laika, the dog that was sent into space in 1957 as part of the Soviet Space Program. I wanted to tell a “what-if” story that would give Laika a happier ending”, says the creator of this touching short animation.
