Black Dog (12A)
★★★★ This Cannes Un Certain Regard winner is a charmingly absurd tale of man’s best friend. ~ RTE.
---
Winner of the Un Certain Regard Prize at Cannes Film Festival 2024 & Grand Jury Prize at Palm Dog Award.
On the edge of the Gobi Desert in Northwest China, Lang returns to his hometown after being released from jail.
While working for the local stray dog patrol team, clearing the town before the 2008 Olympic Games, he strikes up an unlikely connection with a black dog.
These two lonely souls now embark on a new journey together.

★★★★ A squadron of dog catchers, sent into the Gobi desert to round up a bevy of hounds, adds stark absurdism to this commentary on Chinese society. ~ The Guardian.
★★★★★ A Chinese fable of isolation, redemption and canine connection, Black Dog registers as an existential fable about isolation, redemption, the possibility of making connections against the odds. It is also a crime thriller and a dazzling piece of landscape cinema. ~ Financial Times.
