Space Dogs

The first living being sent into space (to a certain death) was Laika, a stray dog from the streets of Moscow. In Russia, a legend spread that she had returned to earth as a ghost, roaming the streets she called home alongside her tangible descendants. A sparse documentary following the lives of stray dogs in Moscow (and the humans that weave in and out of their lives), Space Dogs blurs legend with truth, capturing the humanity of non-humans and humans alike.
