Synopsis:

This series presents a contemplative look at existence through the eyes of Gon, a solitary, small dinosaur seemingly displaced from time. Existing within a primeval landscape populated by creatures reminiscent of the Paleolithic era, Gon navigates his world in complete silence. The narrative focuses on observation and interaction – his encounters with these unfamiliar animals form the core of the story. It’s a character-driven exploration of loneliness, adaptation, and finding meaning in isolation. The atmosphere is one of quiet wonder and subtle melancholy, inviting viewers to reflect on themes of survival and connection beyond language. The series avoids conventional storytelling, prioritizing visual storytelling and emotional resonance over traditional plot structures.
