Cannes Film Festival invites itself to The American French Film Festival!
Dog on Trial by Laetitia Dosch
U.S Premiere on Thursday, October 31 at 5:50 PM.
“Is a dog the same as a table?” Well, in fact, in the eyes of Swiss law, it is. Thus begins Laetitia Dosch‘s somewhat absurdist drama, but what begins as an almost silly comic premise evolves into a passionate cri de cœur for both animal and women’s rights. Presented in the “Un Certain Regard” section at Cannes Film Festival.
