'Therapy Dogs,' is at once, a war cry, a manifesto, and an absolute jewel for those of us who love the energy and intensity of true indie filmmaking.
Therapy Dogs
Therapy Dogs chronicles the last year of high school as two best friends -- Ethan Eng (director-co-writer) and Justin Morrice (actor-co-writer)-- try to create the ultimate senior video while also trying to make sense of their empty teenage lives. Shot in a real high school over the course of a year, they embark on a no-brakes adventure through the wastelands of Toronto’s suburbia, collaging the fears, dreams, and memories of teenage experience. As the year unfolds, pressures on their friendship weigh, and questions arise whether there’s more to their lives than just growing up.
