    • Goofs
      Whenever we see a character wandering on the streets, let it be Lili, Hagen or others, they always take quite odd and complicated routes, passing places quite far from each other. In the opening scene we see Lili cycling in downtown Budapest, on the Pest side (the Eastern bank of the river Danube) but in the next cut she's on the bridge heading to the Eastern bank again. It's not unlikely that she went back to Buda and back again, but doesn't make much sense.

    Every dog has its day in this brilliant apocryphal tale from Hungary.
    Lili is eleven years old and has a beloved dog – Hagen. Her parents are split up and when her mother has to go for a 3 month jolly with work to Australia – she has to stay with pops. Only he lives in an apartment where mutts are verboten. All cross breeds are seen as inferior to pure breeds in Hungary.

    Despite her best efforts Hagen ends up on the mean streets of Budapest and she, in her innocent way, sets out to find him. Now that is the very simple synopsis for what is a film with so much more to offer. This is a cast of thousands – of dogs that is. All of the mixed breed dogs were untrained and rescued from shelters. The performances are stunning. There are scenes of animal butchery and animal cruelty – so if that will offend then this may not be for you.

    It is also a parable about how one species dominates another in the belief it is the superior – and we all know that in parables pride leads to a fall.

    This is also shot beautifully in a beautiful city with stunning realism and an eye for the impact that such a powerful story can make. Official entry fro the Academy Awards for best foreign language film 2015 and winner of Un Certain Regard prize at the 2014 Canes Film Festival – this is amazing, original, stunning and highly entertaining cinema.
