Leopoldo el del bar
Leopoldo from the bar
Animation | Spain | 2021 | 6 min | Spanish
Synopsis
Leopoldo is an old man living in the center of Madrid and he has been going to the same bar every day for the last 12 years. This bar is the last remnant of his old life. When it is shut down, the loneliness he had been avoiding catches up to him in the shape of Mauricio. This humanoid pigeon seems to suffer from verbal diarrhea, and it will try to talk Leopoldo into accepting his fate. Death? No, something a bit more surprising.
