This new Sundance Film Festival qualifier strangely calls itself "Zoo".
Far from strange though, I find the subject repulsive. Bestiality it is, and this film recreates the sensational true-to-life event wherein Kenneth Pinyan - referred to in the film only as Mr. Hands - dies of internal injuries after engaging in a sexual act with a horse. It turns out that "zoo" here points to "zoophile", a person who develops strong affinity to an animal, even reaching a carnal level.
I have to admit, despite its subject being taboo, this film caught my interest. This is also because they recreated the tragedy into a film, not merely a documentary.
