Under the Skin. Jonathan Glazer, 2014.
😿
Edition screened: Lionsgate Blu-ray, released 2014. English language. Runtime approximately 108 minutes.
Summary: Implied accidental drowning of a dog.
We see a family with a dog at the beach. We later see the dog struggling against the tide, and the woman swimming out to rescue him. Both the woman and the dog are gone.
Similar to the conclusion of Kieślowski’s Red, the dog is one victim in a larger tragedy. The canine actor portrays no bodily harm, but if the question is reduced to “Does the plot involve the dog’s death?”, the answer is Yes, and through negligence.
