Synopsis:

From her own experience and memories, marked by the recent loss of her mother and her husband Lou Reed, the director Laurie Anderson draws a small reflection on life, love and death. Created by Laurie Anderson, one of the most recognized American artists, this is a film-essay on life, death and language that results in a close and personal reflection on loss. Narrated with her own voice, childhood stories, political and philosophical theories are mixed with some of her most intimate experiences, such as the relationship with Lolabelle, her beloved rat terrier dog, her mother's death - which left her with some ambivalent feelings - and the tragic death of Lou Reed, her long term partner, who died 27th October 2013. Although there is no direct connection to Bulgakov´s novel, of the same name, both works share a great affection towards humans and dogs. A sensitive and poetic film not to be missed!
