White God (2014) Film Review

White God is a Hungarian film about a young teenage girl named Lili and her relationship with a mutt she is taking care of named Hagen, while her divorced parents continue to find ways to disrespect one another.  Due to a new tax law to control mutt breeding, Lili's father Daniel, who ends up in a situation where he has to care for his daughter and dog for a spell, refuses to pay a cent for his ex-wife's pet while his daughter cares for it, leading eventually to the mutt's abandonment in the streets, and a straining of the relationship between Dad and Lili.  As the girl seeks to find Hagen, the dog finds life isn't so rosy out in the streets of Budapest, where losers, users, and abusers aren't so kind to stray animals.
