This video showcases how Alzheimer's creates anxiety and childlike behavior in my mother, while juxtaposed to my dog panting who seems to be also exhibiting anxiety. The sound that accompanies this is a compilation of numerous consecutive messages from a friend when we were 10 years old.

The video functions as a visual meditation on the cycle of existence. Framing the “wolf” not just as a companion, but also as an avatar for a primal, ancestral force that persists even when the individual fades. The high-contrast, black-and-white imagery serves to strip away the "flesh" of the world, leaving only the essential, skeletal truth of the spirit.

The clip serves as a study on grief and how we cope with loss. It transitions from nostalgic black-and-white footage of a dog walking on a beach, while a hand caresses the screen, to kaleidoscopic visuals, ending with a cosmic representation of the eternal bond between dog and its owner.
