White God

Hungary

An extraordinary film featuring the best dog wrangling ever brought to film. Over 250 live dogs (not CGI) were used in some scenes.

A young girl is forced to give up her beloved dog which leads to incredible consequences for them and their entire city. Plot reminiscent of The Birds. Done in a you-are-there style. Irritating at first when the 12 yo is being treated badly by everyone, the story really cranks up when the mass of dogs escape and rampage through the city.

Oddball film, very effective, original, nicely interwoven parallel stories - truly one of a kind. Marred some by violent dogfight scenes which will keep many from watching it. Unforgettable. No clue on the title.
