Reviews

Heart of a Dog is an impressionistic meditation on death and its prelude by a thoughtful, free-ranging, highly idiosyncratic artist who enjoyed a very deep relationship with her dog.

Todd McCarthy, Hollywood Reporter

When it comes to death, facts are beside the point. Sometimes all you need to see are bare trees. Or a wintry landscape. Or a small dog, too sick and tired to stand.

Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger
