“Believe” is a touching short film created by Jeffrey Pratt, who wrote, edited, and directed this uplifting piece.

Released on December 4, 2020, when many were celebrating Christmas alone due to the pandemic, the film resonated deeply with viewers, reminding them of the true spirit of the holiday season.

Watch the video at the end.

In just three minutes, without any dialogue and featuring only three characters, Pratt beautifully captures the joy of giving and the magic of believing.

The film opens with a scene of a golden retriever under a small, festive shelter adorned with Christmas lights and a stocking.

Despite the cheerful decorations, the dog appears lonely, covered in light snow dusting, seemingly waiting for someone.

Soon, Santa Claus arrives, showering the dog with love and affection. He takes the dog, named Buddy, into a barn and gives him a gentle bath, displaying immense compassion. This scene is so touching that it may bring tears to your eyes as Santa lovingly washes Buddy.

After Buddy is clean and dry, Santa gives him a new collar and prepares him for the next part of the journey.

The following scene shows Buddy sitting in a cozy living room under a beautifully decorated Christmas tree.

Moments later, a child in Christmas pajamas comes down the stairs and excitedly greets his new friend. Buddy’s wagging tail and the child’s joy create a heartwarming moment.

As the child opens his presents with Buddy watching nearby, the dog looks up, seemingly filled with gratitude.

The film’s score enhances the hopeful and beautiful atmosphere, conveying a clear message without any spoken words.

“Believe” encapsulates the essence of Christmas—a time for hope, wonder, and the season’s magic. It also highlights animals’ emotions and the warmth they find in a loving home.

This emotional and inspiring film may even encourage you to bring a dog into your family or add a puppy to your Christmas wishlist.
