Outstanding documentary, Free Puppies about the overpopulation crisis of dogs and cats focusing on the South. Several rescue women are featured in the film including Monda Wooten, Ann Brown, and Ruth Smith. Directors Samantha Wishman and Christina Thomas set their lens on Dade County in northwest Georgia, as an example of the difficulties in getting poor, rural folk to spay and neuter their pets. Yes parts of the film are heart-breaking, but these three women represent a massive amount of volunteer animal rescue people who truly are angels among us. Powerful and hopeful. 4 out of 5.
