Barko is a lonely, unloved, and abused dog who has established himself as the unwilling clown of a circus run by poodles. His seemingly random fear of hot dogs is rationalized by flashbacks conveying a former owner who occupies his time tormenting the poor pup with the processed snack. Yet, in the end, Barko suddenly finds himself in the arms of a caring boy who shows him that he can experience a little love after all.<br /><br />-----<br /><br />Barko won the following awards: <br /><br />Palm Springs Shortfest, June 22-28, 2010, Palm Springs, CA, USA (in best of the fest program, voted 3rd by audience)<br />Austin Film Festival, Oct. 13-24, 2010, Audience Award for Animated Short<br />Red Stick International Animation Festival, Nov. 10-13, 2010<br />(Best of the Fest finalist Professional Animated Short category), Baton Rouge, LA, USA<br />Les Nuits Magiques Festival Int'l de Film d'Animation, Dec. 3-12, 2010, Begles, France, Audience Award<br />Los Angeles Animation Festival, Dec. 3, 2010, Audience Award for Animated Short<br />Dam Short Film Festival, Feb. 9-12, 2011, Boulder City, NV, USA, Best Animation Award<br />2D Or Not 2D Animation Festival, Jan. 22, 2011, Seattle, WA, USA Golden Pencil Award<br /><br />-----<br /><br />Barko has been shown at numerous festivals, including: <br /><br />Seoul International Cartoon & Animation Festival, July 21-25, 2010, Seoul, S.
