Finn and Puss

A tender tale that explores ethics and integrity.

Finn, a young boy, is lonely. Puss, a cat, is lost. Then Finn and Puss meet. Suddenly Finn isn't lonely anymore, and Puss seems quite happy to be with Finn too. So when Finn sees a -Lost' poster, put up by Puss's owners, he's faced with a tough decision. Will he do the right thing? This simple story, told in few words, touches on themes of hope, despair, loneliness and friendship. Above all, it gently explores how sometimes we need to make hard choices but that -doing the right thing' has its own rewards.
