Wissenswertes

Here's the Plan is a 2017 English-language Chilean animated romantic drama short film, written and directed by Fernanda Frick H. The film follows the life of a married cat and dog couple who start off with a dream to open a bakery, only for their lives to drift apart due to a variety of circumstances. The film premiered at the Nashville Film Festival before getting released online several months later.

Production

Fernanda Frick came up with the idea for the short after watching movies about marriages. "I began to notice that every time a marriage was shown on screen it seemed as if the worst thing that could happen to you in life was to be married." Frick was disappointed in the stereotypes of married couples; husbands as slobbish pigs and wives as hysterical manipulators.

The overall aesthetic was inspired by the Craig Thompson graphic novel Good-bye, Chunky Rice as it featured "cute animals with complex human emotions and relationships". The film was initially much shorter, but Frick chose to expand it despite the possible threat of it not being able to compete in festivals.
