A humorous and wild performance told with colorful shadows, music and acting about a child and his dog.
Dog Life is a humorous and slightly wild story about how to know for sure who is a dog and who is a child. Told with lots of music, colorful shadows and acting.

Dog Life or Vida de Perros as it is called in Spanish is based on a book by ALMA award winner ISOL. ISOL is an Argentine writer, musician and illustrator. Dog Life is the story of a child and his best friend the dog Clovis and the constant question of how to know for sure who is who and what is what. It is a story that is, in small terms, about the child's desire to see similarities and the adult's need to point out differences. It is a story that is, in large terms, about who we are and who they are – and who decides that.

But above all, it is a fun, playful and unusual performance in color and form that, with great love, is completely on the child's side.
