Legend of the Boatman: A homeless dog's dream.
Legend of the Boatman
'Somewhere far away, there was an island
where the flowers swayed in a warm breeze.
On this island lived a boatman
who had sailed there from far overseas.'
This modern-day fairy tale tells of how the 'Legend of the Boatman' became the legend. The legend who came from the stars to help all homeless dogs forevermore.
The Boatman travels from town to town to sell some of his flowers. Every place he visits, he sees homeless dogs. He really wishes that he could help them all but there are just to many dogs who need help. One day, he wishes too much
It is only when the dogs dream that we realise that the Legend of the Boatman and the dogs are able to transcend themselves to an even greater joy.
We follow the Legend of the Boatman as he takes them on amazing journeys in his boat.
