"Bitch" on screen at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 22 at Bethel Cinema
A stray dog from the alleyways of New Delhi finds itself transported to Sweden, where she is thrust into a series of interactions with some pretty colorful people. And in the end, perhaps there's a reason life brought her there.
Director’s Statement:
The filmic experience is both immersive and highly subjective, and eschewed in the way that we are asked to go on a journey with one or several characters. I was intrigued by the notion of doing just this, through the direct point-of-view of a single character, a dog. To see the world from a creature's perspective where basically everything and everyone is bigger than us, and yet, being subject to people's expectations of what a dog is supposed to be, I wanted to see if we could study ordinary people's behaviour through the eyes of man´s best friend. This is a journey through a single character's perspective, and a study of form and character. I hope you enjoy it.
