Context: It is usually SMEs that support these small academic productions.

Therefore, we appeal to the community, friends, and other entities that are able to help support the costs of this production.
Synopsis of the film:
Two strangers are confined in a room, during a social experience, where they talk and confront each other about the impact that bullying has had on their lives. However, exposing the secrets they both carry leads to honest brutality of how they really fit into the world, which often shows that people are not as good as dogs think they are.
About Misanthropy:
Misanthropy is a personal phenomenon that represents an aversion to human beings, disbelief in relation to humanity, its evolution, and its success. The misanthrope cannot believe that tomorrow will be better and is characterized by a pessimistic attitude towards society. This anomaly can be caused by traumas or disappointments that trigger this disbelief and lack of motivation to fight for a common vision.
