Possessing a dog can be not only a huge pleasure but also a certain responsibility. It means as well the responsibility for the dog's excrements. Dog poo seems to be something unimportant. However, in the cities where there is too little space for dogs it can become a problem.

Many of us are not aware that dog poo is not only the case of aesthetics but also it can be dangerous to our health, especially for children. The obligation to clean up after our pets in public spaces (sidewalks, playgrounds, streets, etc.) is up to the pet's owner. Unfortunately, in Poland it is not obvious and a lot of people belittle this issue.

This movie is not a ready solution. It is more likely to reach the reason of the problem. The movie is also a pretext to a bigger action that could change the people's attitude and eventually also improve the level of cleanliness in our public spaces. The spaces that we use every day.
