In the film world, animals are typically treated as the highest form of innocence. When watching a Civil War movie, we are more upset when the horse is shot than when the humans are. So when a film comes along that treats animals in a different kind of light, like Meet the Feebles or Fritz The Cat, things typically have to go to the extremes. We R Animals does just that.
Twitch has posted a full gallery of images and a synopsis for the upcoming Swedish-produced, English-language puppet film directed by Thobias Hoffmen. Full of pimp cats, vindictive dogs and elderly prostitution, this is a film that should jump to the top of your future must-see list (the film goes into production next year).
Check out the synopsis below as well as a few images and head over to Twitch to see the rest.
Snow White the rabbit is stuck in a sadistic man's pet store, she craves for love but nobody wants to take her home. But one day the animals wreck havoc and they all escape, including Snow White. She gets lost with her newfound freedom and almost dies, until the nice old lady Alice saves her. Snow White would've had a bright future if not for Alice's jealous and vindictive dogs, who call on their friend Flash, a shady and devious pimp cat. Together they plan to transform Alice's apartment into a brothel for animals, and force Snow White and even the human Alice into prostitution.We R Animals is a comic adventure, filled with drug using cats, horny dogs, cat-ninja assassins, vampire bats, cruelty and magic. In essence We R Animals is a love story told with warmth, where sometimes the laughter sits in the throat and forces us to question the morals and views of both animals and man.
