Being a Dog (Dir. Felix Swahn. 2021, 8 mins.)

Sep 1, 2023

Felix Swahn’s fantasy animation takes us into the perspective of Tim, a man who transforms into a dog depending on his feelings toward his friend Ginger. Beginning with moments of sadness and insecurity, the mostly black-and-white film is richly drawn and ends with Tim’s acceptance of being a dog.
