"Island of Dogs"

On the surface, "Canis Island" is Wes's gentleness, and it is also a beautiful version of a fairy tale, rewriting the tragic fate of the dogs in the prototype event. From the perspective of dogs and children, he criticized the hypocrisy and cowardice of the adult world. Those who lost their pet dogs because of the mayor's orders, although they were reluctant and unwilling, only children were willing to do their best to expose the conspiracy behind them and find their pet dogs.

The film uses a clear rhythm and strong percussive soundtrack, so that the simple storyline is always on the "drum beat", so that the criticism and praise of the film are sonorous and sound.
