Walkies
Overview:
She thought she'd always be on the inside looking out...until a robotic dog gave her a reason to step out. Isolated by depression and anxiety, Esther spends her days watching the world pass by. After a failed attempt to connect, she makes an unexpected choice: she orders a robotic dog named Luno. It's awkward. It's weird. And somehow... it helps. As Esther ventures out with Luno, a chance meeting with another robotic dog walker sparks something real. For the first time in ages, she doesn't feel invisible. Walkies is a quiet, hopeful story about taking the first steps toward connection-and discovering you're not as alone as you thought.
