XOLO

Late one night, a hungry little Xolo named Skippy wanders his home searching for food and his missing owner, Maria. To his shock, he discovers her lying dead on the couch just as the Aztec god of death, Xolotl, enters through the door. Realizing the god has come to take her spirit, Skippy leads him through the house, revealing the small yet meaningful moments that defined the love they shared.
