This short film, Cindy Chupack's directing debut, was originally shot as part of a 2008 anthology series of short films called "Puppy Love," which was created by 'Amy B. Harris' (a fellow Sex and the City (1998) writer). The Puppy Love series, which raised money for the ASPCA, was sponsored by Lexus and featured on their website, L Studio. This 2009 "festival version" is the director's cut and features the song "First Day of My Life," written by Conor Oberst and performed by Bright Eyes.
