CGiii Comment

This is about a hard-up, lonely man who stuffs his dead (stuffed) cat in the freezer.

It throws up a few surprises...

Do video rental stores still exist???

$300 to bury a cat!!!

A finely crafted little film that will have you in stitches...

The(ir) Blurb...

Edmond, a 30-something recluse, comes home to find his only friend dead on his mattress; his beloved cat Patti. Unable to deal with the remains, he procrastinates by storing her in the freezer. As Edmond goes about his daily routine, we can't help but get the feeling that something is horribly wrong. He desperately attempts to connect with anything and anyone around him while simultaneously trying to figure out what to do with his ice brick of a cat corpse at home. When everything goes disastrously wrong, Edmond's life becomes a complete cat-astrophy. He is then forced to face the inevitable: Edmond must begin to reevaluate his world minus Patti.
