The documentary introduces us to the work and efforts of Amit Sehgal, the founder of Jeev Aashraya. Founded in Lucknow, Uttar Pradhesh in 2011, with its name translating to animal shelter/refuge, the NGO works towards protecting and rehabilitating animals. With the ideology of taking care of all creatures on earth at its heart, from horses to monkeys to dogs, to only name a few, the organization strives to do its best, shares Sehgal. 

 Though the end result of the film could have been tighter for greater impact, it remains well-meaning and dedicated all along. It also presents to the viewer a deeply involving and engaging subject who single-handedly regales them with his many stories and experiences.

Truth and Fiction | Short Film Nominee

Imagined through the eyes of a dog, the short narrative takes us into his experiences at an animal shelter. He has been removed from his own neighborhood which he misses sorely. In the process, he introduces us to the daily routine of all other animals, his companions at his new home. There is a sweet attempt to conjure the realities and the backgrounds of each of these. At the heart of the plot is also the message about the welfare and adoption of animals, reminding humans to extend kindness towards their four-legged friends whenever possible and permitted by their individual circumstance.
