Description

Get inspired by canine humanity and life-altering trust at work in this observational marvel, fresh from its premiere at Hot Docs 2019. Master documentarian Heddy Honigmann turns her eye to the inner workings of relationships between service dogs and their owners—from an elderly soldier blinded by an explosion to an autistic child with multiple physical challenges. Helping their owners navigate physical and emotional living, impressive dogs like Kaiko and Makker can easily pull drawer handles and signal approaching doorways—but what they actually open is access to the world. Buddy is a heartwarming portrait of the unshakeable bond between animal and human. 

In Dutch with English subtitles

Promotional Partners: COPE Service Dogs and Fighting Blindness Canada

Additional Information

“A tender tribute to tail-wagging treasures.” – The Hollywood Reporter

“Warm, observant, mildly philosophical and deeply curious.” – The New York Times
