“The documentary for all pet owners”
Do we need animals to fill the void that should really be filled by people? To what extent do we project our own deprivation and longing on these sweet pets? All the protagonists in this documentary are indirectly afraid of being rejected and find safety and unconditional love in their animal(s). We observe these relationships and follow them in their steps to overcome their anxieties and insecurities and step into the world of humans more.
“A staggering achievement of craft and ambition. Johan Kramer's vision lands with breathtaking precision.”
“Every frame feels alive. My Pet and Me is the rare release that takes its audience seriously.”
