An artist's thoughts on colonialism and its contemporary by-products. Marquez uses dogs and dog shows as a metaphor for the condition of historically colonized populations, focusing on a "conversation" on breeding set in his native Philippines. The people in the video are seen discussing the merits and responsibilities of "proper" dog ownership--many aspects being akin to rationales for colonialism.
