Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for anyone who wants something that moves them and anyone who's ever talked to their pet. It's about loss, handled with care rather than melodrama. An animal steals a fair few scenes.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Breezy, at 20 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in German, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
Isabell can't get over her dog's death. Unable to overcome her grief and surrounded by happy dog owners, she decides that no one else should have a dog.
