Summary
For The Animals, a touching documentary about animal welfare, is releasing on July 28 and Screen Rant is pleased to present an exclusive clip. Actor and activist Alyssa Milano executive produces the movie directed by monk filmmakers Sadhvi Siddhali Shree and Sadhvi Anubhuti. The duo previously worked with Milano on their 2022 documentary Surviving Sex Trafficking, and now they have turned their gaze toward vulnerable animals who require attention.
The feature-length documentary follows Houston PetSet, a group of animal rights activists in Texas who work to improve the lives of stray cats and dogs on the streets of their city. Twin sisters Tena Lundquist Faust and Tama Lundquist are the face of the organization and the subjects of For The Animals, as the documentary catalogs their efforts to help stray animals in Texas. Screen Rant’s exclusive clip, shown below, highlights their successful attempt to save one dog in particular.
More About For The Animals
In the clip, the sisters drive up slowly to a trap that was set for a dog named Walter, who makes his way into the cage in order to obtain some chicken. After years on the street, For The Animals celebrates his upcoming veterinarian appointment and eventual re-homing. The emotion is palpable on the screen, underscoring exactly why the work that Houston PetSet does is so important.
The Lundquist twins have already raised millions of dollars toward the care and shelter of stray animals, but by working together with Alyssa Milano and directors Sadhvi Siddhali Shree and Sadhvi Anubhuti, they hope to spread the word and inspire a group effort. For the Animals may be about the stray dog epidemic in Houston, but Texas is far from the only place that needs some help in that department. Audiences who are moved by Walter’s story can learn more and even donate at the For The Animals website.
For The Animals will be available in select theaters, on digital, and On Demand on July 28.
