Koko & Bo

Have you ever been faced by the overwhelming feeling of I DON'T WANT TO? Koko has.
Koko doesn't want to go home, Koko doesn't want to go to sleep, and Koko doesn't want to get up either But Bo is patient. He knows that Koko will come home when bored, will go to sleep when tired, and will get up when hungry--he just has to wait for Koko to figure it out. Koko and Bo is about two people, one big and one small, quietly negotiating the relationship between freedom and trust to reach a better understanding of each other and the world.
