SPECIAL FEATURES: - Deleted Scenes - Theatrical Trailer Review "An exquisite portrait of the lives of six guide dogs and their owners. But because it s a Heddy Honigmann film it inevitably transforms into a philosophical meditation in this case, an exploration of the love affair between mankind and its best friend." --Lauren Wissot, Filmmaker MagazineCritic s Pick! Warm, observant, mildly philosophical and deeply curious... Without a millimeter of overreach, Honigmann's movie convinces you that the dogs have kept these people away from overwhelming bleakness by also guiding them into the light. --Wesley Morris, The New York TimesAn audience favorite! A tender tribute to tail-wagging treasures. --Hollywood Reporter
