Husky eyes

When Ezequiel was diagnosed with AIDS, he was left alone, without family or friends, who turned their backs on him. His life was full of disdainful looks and reproaches. The only things that helped him cope with the disease were his husky dog ​​Sacha, his cello and the sudden appearance of his younger brother, who gave him the support, acceptance and love that Ezequiel needed all these years…
