Synopsis
The story of late Kupata, the stray dog from the city of Batumi who escorted kids across the street, in a way that captured hearts nationwide and globally. Viewers are placed inside Kupata’s world, following him as traffic, mental and psychological obstacles, and even the delicious smell of a meat deli (Kupata's name derives from his well-known love for Kupati, which is a richly spiced traditional Georgian sausage) threaten the children’s safe passage, but he doesn't stop. Lush Batumi backdrops and dynamic editorial pacing elevate a local anecdote into a universal symbol of unconditional kindness. The result is branded entertainment that proves even the smallest guardian can move an entire nation to action.
