Clip description

The Animal Memorial Cemetery and Crematorium is the final resting place for people’s pets.

Curator’s notes

Simply but effectively directed, this segment allows the owners of the pet cemetery to speak directly to camera. The result is a charming and sympathetic piece, very good looking despite what was clearly a low budget.
