A Dog's Life

'A DOG'S LIFE' (1 x 52') combines classic wildlife cinematography with an intimate approach to deliver a comprehensive portrait of this endangered and largely misunderstood species. The film looks at the African wild dogs' intricate family ties, their skill and stamina in pursuit of prey and their unusual parenting techniques. Cameraman Kim Wolhuter's persistence in gaining the pack's acceptance eventually pays off, enabling him to capture compelling sequences of rarely filmed behaviour. He watches as the dogs are ravaged by rabies, the disease eventually bringing the pack to its knees. But hope appears when a new pair of Wild dogs arrive in the area. Could this be the beginning of a new pack?
