Black Dog

On the edge of the Gobi Desert in Northwest China, Lang returns to his hometown after being released from jail. While working for the local stray dog patrol team, clearing the town before the 2008 Olympic Games, he strikes up an unlikely connection with a black dog. These two lonely souls now embark on a new journey together. Black Dog had its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in 2024 winning the Un Certain Regard Award, and the lead canine, Xin, won the Palm Dog Award. This is a soulful story about a man and a dog as they unite together to turn a new page in life.
