What if a dog's tail was more than just a part of his body that it can wag? What if its tail became his best friend, someone it could share the bone it chews with, someone to play table tennis, someone to spend the whole day and whole night with? That could really, finally be a happy end and animation makes it possible. But every happy end has its dark spots and if your tail becomes a self-reliant character there is a chance that he also wants his own cat to chase!

 

Milen Vitanov was born in Prague in 1978 and grew up in Sofia, Bulgaria. In 2007, he graduated in animation from the Konrad Wolf Film and Television University in Potsdam-Babelsberg. His graduation film, My Happy End, was screened at a number of international festivals and won several prestigious awards. Together with a group of HFF graduates in Berlin, he founded the production company Talking Animals Animation Studio.
