Hopalong Animal Rescue: The Power of Fostering

Animal Bridge - Every soul needs a home

'“Tierbrücke”' tells with a lot of heart about the construction of the animal shelter in Ukraine, with all the adversities that go with it: lack of materials, language barriers, evacuations of animals at the front, and the danger for the construction workers of being drafted into the army. “'Tierbrücke”' tells of the animal souls left behind that nobody hears, even though they call for help every day and at all times. It tells of people who stay in a country at war to be there for animals. With all the hurdles that have become their normality. And it tells of dreamers from Germany who are confronted with the bitter reality of a privileged situation. People with two left hands who admittedly have more heart and soul than manual skills.

Space Dogs

Laika, a stray dog, was the first living being to be sent into space and thus to a certain death. A legend says that she returned to Earth as a ghost and still roams the streets of Moscow alongside her free-drifting descendants. While shooting this film, the directors little by little realised that they knew the street dogs only as part of our human world; they have never looked at humans as a part of the dogs’ world.
