Synopsis

Follows the story of two lesbians and the frequent near-death experiences of their beloved rescue dog.

Description

An all too frequent reality in the lesbian and gay community, death is a hushed subject in our society. These personal accounts attempt to locate its rightful place in our lives. Combined, these films remind us of grief's importance and death's life-affirming power. Jean and Jane's 16-year-old Doberman, Shatzi, is dying. Thing is, no one knows when. Just when the old girl can't seem to rise off the couch, spring comes and she's like a pup again. Filmmaker Jean Calamusto turns her camera on Shatzi's inevitable passage, creating a remarkably lucid and appropriately light-hearted reflection on death and an exploration of pets' roles in gay couples' lives and the meaning of death in modern and ancient cultures.
