Mine
This powerful story of the essential bond between humans and animals is told against the backdrop of one of the worst natural disasters in US history. In response to Hurricane Katrina, thousands of pets needed to be transported around the country and adopted even when their displaced guardians still desperately wanted them.
Meanwhile, many adoptive guardians have forged strong bonds with their new pets, nurturing them back to health from the traumas they suffered. But when two families love the same pet, conflicts inevitably arise over who is the rightful “owner” and what is right for the animal.
At the center of this tension are pets who are loved like family, but by law are considered property. The film presents the complexity of an intensely emotional situation that has no simple answers. Mine is a compelling, character-driven story that challenges us see the way we treat animals in our society as a reflection of how we treat ourselves—and each other.
Presented in association with The Seattle Humane Society and Seattle Weekly.
