Can a shared pet bring two exes back together, or is it just the perfect excuse to reopen old wounds? This sharp Spanish short turns a conversation about a dog into a quiet, intense battle of wills.
Breakups are always a headache, but when you throw a shared pet into the mix, things get a whole lot messier. This short throws us right into that super awkward post-breakup phase. Carlos just shows up at Ander's door, supposedly to talk about their dog, Beicon. Ander is completely over it and just wants him out of the apartment, but Carlos refuses to budge. We've all been in or seen a situation like this, and the film captures that vibe perfectly.
Just Two Guys and a Lot of Baggage
What I really liked about this one is how real the tension feels. It is literally just two guys in a room, but the atmosphere is so thick you could cut it with a knife. You get that claustrophobic feeling of being stuck with an ex when you really don't want to deal with them. Alberto Amayuelas and Ramon Pujol are great together. You can totally buy that they used to be a couple because they have that very specific, tired chemistry that only comes from years of dating.
Real and Raw
They are technically arguing about a dog, but you can feel all their past issues bubbling right under the surface. It never feels like actors reading lines; it just feels like a genuinely uncomfortable conversation you shouldn't be eavesdropping on. It is a solid, quiet look at how hard it is to finally let go.
