Beautifully animated and featuring an all-star cast voiced by Christopher Plummer, the late Lynn Redgrave (in her last film to be released), and Isabella Rossellini, My Dog Tulip is a touching; bittersweet adaptation of the late British author, J. R. Ackerley’s (former Literary Editor of the BBC magazine, The Listener) enduring memoir (published 14th April), exploring the 16-year relationship with his adopted Alsatian bitch, Tulip.
Widely praised upon its US release, My Dog Tulip is a profound and subtle mediation on the strangeness that lies at the heart of all relationships.
Written, directed and animated by award-winning (and Academy Nominated) filmmakers, Paul and Sandra Fierlinger, it is the first animated feature ever to be entirely hand drawn and painted, utilizing paperless computer technology.
