Storia
Naive and brash teenage runaway Bonnie finds herself lost in America. Her brother tracks her down but acts more like a controlling pimp than a concerned sibling. Bonnie encounters a series of eccentric and dangerous characters who treat her as an object: violent criminal Pat forces Bonnie to assist in kidnapping middle-aged Dan Daubrey; domineering lesbian painter Geraldine Mills keeps Bonnie as her kept girl, using her as a model; wealthy misogynist Vincent Stackman desires Bonnie as the ultimate prize for his collection of caged female animals in his remote mansion basement.
Riassunto
‘Pets’ is a controversial and disturbing film from 1973 directed by Raphael Nussbaum. It explores the dark side of human nature through its portrayal of several dangerous and perverse characters who exploit young runaway Bonnie, played by Lisa Lang. The movie, which blends drama and thriller elements, was criticized for its graphic content but was also praised for its raw and honest depiction of societal issues such as objectification, misogyny, and power dynamics.
