    • Trivia
      Australia's co-production treaty with Ireland was signed in 1998 and to date has produced five official co-productions, one television mini-series, two children's drama series, documentary series, and one feature-length documentary. 'Animals' is the first theatrical dramatic feature film made under this treaty. The competent authorities tasked with administrating the co-production program in both Australia and Ireland are Screen Australia and the Irish Film Board respectively.

    Scum life
    The film is well done and the acting is excellent. The whole thing is very believable. The issue is the story. It a free wheeling pair of best girlfriends drinking and sexing their lives away in a continuous party at night. Then, one of them falls a bit for a guy and the other can't take it. You'd think lesbianism but it is not a consumed one, apparently. The cheery beginning full of promises turn into jadedness. I see this film as a cautionary tale of a death spiral about to commence.
