Description:

            The drawing declared the winner by the public vote will be the basis for the creation of the main male character in the animated film of the ABIFF Festival.

          Its action will take place in Romania and will describe the relationship between a boy / girl member of the majority (Romanian) and a girl / boy belonging to an ethnic minority (cohabitant / emigrant / refugee depending on the public vote – all characters will be generated by the Contests drawing within the ABIFF Project). The 2 main characters will go through different adventures trying to train the same dog, each in their mother tongue.
