Dog on Trial
Dog on Trial
Directed, written and lead by herself, Laetitia Dosch’ comical and offbeat directorial debut has made appearances across several international film festivals, including Cannes Film Festival “Un Certain Regard” Competition, Locarno Film Festival, Busan International Film Festival “World Cinema” Selection, as well as The Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival. KODI, the dog who played a vital role in the film, has won the “Palm Dog Award” in Cannes this year.
Avril, an independently minded lawyer known for taking on lost causes, resolves to secure a victory in her next case. However, when Dariuch another seemingly hopeless client, asks her to defend his faithful canine companion, Cosmos, Avril is unable to resist. She dives into the absurdity of defending a canine client, confronting not only the legal system but also advocating for both women’s and animal rights. A lively and at times comical court case unfolds – where a dog’s life hangs in the balance.
