Documentary. USA, France 2015, 75 min. Directed by Laurie Anderson. Starring: Lollabelle, Archie, Jason Berg, Heung-Heung Chin. In English with Russian subtitles. A dreamy documentary that first seems to be world-known artist Laurie Andreson’s lament over her death of her beloved rat terrier Lolabelle, a dog whose boho West Village existence included painting lessons and a meditation teacher. However, there is something deeper than that in the movie, with Anderson narrating over a collage of 8mm home video, iPhone footage, canine-level camera, and animation. When Lou Reed’s resonant “Turning Time Around” comes on the soundtrack, it becomes clear that telling the story of her cherished dog has been a way of mourning the loss of someone else than her pet. A magical meditation on love and death, as well as a celebration of life to enjoy while we’re still here.
