It never knows how to stand still, because it's a doomed hero, born to run. It never takes a back seat, just because it is a natural leader, always with pride in its eyes. Its name may not be engraved on the statue, but the feat of crossing the channel is well known. The newspapers may not get its story, but the courage to move forward never wavered. The life of Togo and Sepera living together is the most beautiful portrayal of the relationship between humans and animals in the world. The fusion of disaster + animal types is very successful. There is almost no redundant writing throughout, and the rhythm is particularly stable. The handling of multiple flashback perspectives not only does not affect the urgency of the main story, but instead makes the audience's feelings for Togo more full: The newborn calf The bravery of the old man, the tenacity of the old man, the constant companionship, and the gradual progression of such delicate and gentle emotional context, how can you not cry. We were moved not only because of the 425-kilometer feat, but also because in Togo we felt those noble qualities: docile, tenacious, loyal, brave. The magnificent scenery combined with Willem Dafoe's infectious performance makes it hard to score low.

Although the story is simple, it is touching enough. Traveling between the magnificent snow-capped mountains and clouds, people can appreciate the beauty of the vast snow-white world, and it is extremely shocking to cross the glaciers in a race against time. Togo was not physically superior since he was a child, but it was able to move forward bravely, with its own persistence and belief. "I always thought it was made for sleds, but in the end, it was always made for me." When Togo was too old to run, the director chose to be a "good person", and did not immediately let the audience face its cruel death, but had a happy ending, as good as walking and running. Smart, tenacious, brave, loyal, and the extraordinary relationship with the owner, in this cold winter, it brings the audience full of warmth and touching.
