Details

Wiener-Dog (2016) is a dark comedy film that follows the journey of a dachshund as it passes from one eccentric owner to another, leaving a lasting impact on their deeply flawed lives. Directed by Todd Solondz, this quirky and offbeat film delves into the lives of four sets of characters who find themselves connected through their interactions with the affectionate pooch.

Through a series of interconnected vignettes, we meet each of the dog's new owners, each with their own peculiarities and struggles. From a young boy whose hopes and dreams fall apart, to a depressed screenwriter who seeks inspiration, and an old woman who pays for the dog's medical treatment, these characters find solace and a sense of connection through their furry companion.
