An important film about how various industries use dogs and horribly mistreat them.About the worst news imaginable for Alaska dog mushers was coming out of Whistler, British Columbia, Canada, on Sunday.
Tied for Top Documentaty at the Whistler Film Festival, “Sled Dogs” is a documentary that takes issue with the sled-dog industry in general and with Alaska’s Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in particular.
It’s a Christmas nightmare for those who thought the film so slanted they threatened legal action to try to stop its premiere. What they got instead was pretty much the opposite.
The World Documentary Award sponsored by Super Channel was a tie between “Sled Dogs” directed by Fern Levitt and “The Will To Fly” directed by Katie Bender and Leo Baker,” a press release reported.The jury deliberated and had a hard time picking a winner but there was consensus on the top three films.
