Animal Love
People in a big city. People in Vienna. Lonely people. Two young men who live in a dingy basement and panhandle with their pets. An ex-convict who wants to start a new life, bankrolled by his fiancée. A single actress who's had it with men. A man with asthma who consumes life via his television. Two hard-up, early retirees who bicker their way through life. In today's high-tech world, in which communication has assumed unprecedented importance, human intimacy has become a rarity. Dogs, cats, rats and other pets serve as conversation partners, lifemates, objects to be petted and bedmates.
"Never in the movies have I looked so directly into hell." – Werner Herzog
