Fresh Cut Grass

About This Movie

Fresh Cut Grass is an intriguing little gem from 2014 that takes you on an emotional journey through the eyes of a small dog. The adventure unfolds in a big city, and the animation is quite unique—feels almost hand-drawn in parts, giving it a textured feel. The pacing is gentle, allowing moments of reflection amidst the chaos of city life. Themes of family and belonging are prevalent, and there's a sort of bittersweet charm to it. You'll notice the practical effects blend well with the animated elements, making it stand out in a sea of digital-only films. The dog’s search for his sister provides a heartfelt core that resonates. It's definitely not your typical animated fare, which I think is what sets it apart.

A unique approach to storytelling in animation.Remarkable use of practical effects.Themes of family and belonging resonate throughout.
