Abstract
An affectionate and humorous portrayal of the relationship between a woman and her dog. As the dog explores the world and meets other dogs on their many walks together, the film shakes and mirrors the excitement and chaos of a dog's life. Many of these scenes are repeated and reprinted, lending a distinct rhythm of image and color to the edit. At other times, the focus falls on intimate moments shared between the dog and the woman, with emphasis on touch and comfort. The film concludes with the dog giving birth to a litter of puppies and her own subsequent relationship to her offspring. Exact date of production is unknown.
