Sleeping Dogs

| University Portrayal: Graduate School for Moving Image Kassel
(kleines BALi, KulturBahnhof Kassel)

A film about “us” and “them”, involuntary encounters in public space and the search for common ground, despite everything. While watching charming, cheerful, grumpy, well groomed or rather graceless dogs, we listen to their owners reflecting on their ideas of „us“ and „them.“ What started as a search for discourse in public space led to diverse encounters in various dog parks with people from all kinds of backgrounds.
