Returning from an errand to buy bread, a boy finds a menacing dog blocking his way through the alley he must pass to get home. Frightened by the dog's barking, he asks various passers-by for help but no-one pays him any attention, and he must find a solution all by himself: he throws the dog a piece of bread and, while the animal is devouring it, he continues on his way home. when the boy with the bread finds the way to treat the dog, then there is another boy with the bowl of yogurt encounters the same dog that is barking. The solution which is worked for the first boy cannot be applied for the second boy. This is how Kiarostami shows the unique experience of each person.
