  • "What are we doing out here, Ben, eh?" [9:12] 

  • I've always been a misfit. I used to talk to animals as a child and I have journals where I wrote about my conversations. This film moved me. I imagine it is easy to relate to if you are a black sheep.

  • it has that comedic vibe to it i like it.

  • awesome works!

  • TO CUTE :) x

  • @marblewithoutwax go fuck yourself

  • Lovely. Thank you.

  • If you don't need my money, stop trying to get me to buy this album...

  • i have heard of a "Boy and his Dog", but never a "Boy and his Sheep" i actually started crying because of the strong bond between this "sheperd" and his sheep!

  • Thumbs up if u clicked because u thought that is something about Peter Parker(From Spider-Man) and his uncle Ben

  • Was that a Pokemon ? Why it is always saying his own name ? "BeEeEn BeEeEen"

  • "Lamn" that was good!

  • 10.THINGS TO LOOK AT WHILE BORED MAKING PLAYLIST

  • Who's up for lambchops?

  • there are no words to say how much i love this had a pet lamb when i was growing up x

  • Makes me even more glad that I'm a vegetarian :)

  • Strange to be emotionally involved with something I'd happily eat.

  • I don't think Ben actually comes back. I think the end is just a clip from the beginning when they're walking home =[

  • Beautiful Stuff. Great to see Warren Bleaty in action.

  • What a poignant and simple little film

  • so moving, i cried

  • Peter and Ben are the names of spiderman and his uncle.. Peter Parker and Ben Parker

  • I was an atheist before I watched this.

  • @zeaga15 I was a vegetarian before I watched.

  • Thought this was a great video, it was a really nice story.

  • i feel really really bad about the lambchops in my fridge :-( ah well..

  • mmmm...leg of lamb...

  • Beautiful film and music ;(

  • we are human..

    we are God's finest creation..

    we are the ones who choose how the world could be..

    why WHY not be merciful, caring & loving to all living things like in this video!

    we all with no doubt felt relieved and felt touched with the harmony between those two.. Why not see that between all races and all God's creations...??

  • Wonderful

  • :')

  • loved it.amazing documentary

  • I like the bit when the sheep gets a banana =,3

  • One Hundred People... Can Kiss My Ass.

    Nobody has my heart of stone, and this video just put a crack in it.

    Touching.

  • wtf is that?

  • so sweet

    

  • I cant believe it, Im cryin... wth!

  • AWWW I Love Ben too-

  • i think iam too young to understand this but it was alritght

  • watch?v=DrNcrh3xmp0

    My 1 minute short film. If you could leave any ratings or comments I'd be very thankful :)

  • This guy makes the best videos on youtube

  • (707)364-2614 prank call

  • OMFG...That was beautiful...it made me CRY! D: ahhhh <3

  • I love how Ben is not a "sheep", in a sense that he doesn't follow like other sheep but chooses to live his life differently, same with Peter.

    Really liked this, it was very inspiring.

  • i almost cried when ben came back

  • Nice guy!Good luck!

  • What a beautiful little film! I wonder if the ending was actually how it went. It could have been edited to look as though Ben returned even if he didn't.

  • freeky mid-age crisis

  • anyone see the huma skeleton in the shed at 4:51??!! what's that all about that??!!

  • @munchermoomusli That was his wife Dorris!

  • serenity! he found his quantom of solace!

  • Thank you.

  • anyone knw what the music is? cheers, gr8 short film.

  • 5 stars.

  • Full of emotions and simple I love it !

  • very nice...

  • Great vid. Reminds me of a small lamb who was also rejected by its mother, so we hand-raised him and called him Larry. He basically became "slightly" house trained and even got friendly with our dogs. Once introduced back to the flock, he still stayed tame and even came in for food when called.

  • please dont leave that sheep

    very nice

  • Emotional and beautiful. Sheep poop to those who don't like it. They are what's wrong with the world.

  • BEN WANT BANANA!

  • soo beautiful...thank u:)

  • Comment removed

  • @melissais XXXSPOILERXXX : /

  • @MtotheATTHEW it's predictable.

  • @melissais Wanna know whats better than reading how it ends? Watching how it ends...

  • @melissais Ruined for everyone. Idiot.

  • @jimmymichaelwatson  SOORRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!! Douche!

  • I get the felling that the film was staged...

  • Better than anything Hollywood produced in last ten years.

  • This film was made by my sister...I am so proud! 300,000 views! Astounding to think that Peter and, of course, Ben have this recognition all across the world! Although such an idyllic and incredible relationship deserves to be known...

  • A tough argument for vegetarians, this film :) The message conveyed, I think, is that not only can cats and dogs be friends to us but also other species :-D That's the impression I got after watching this film. Ben behaves sort of like a dog, he comes when the guy calls his name, he likes to be stroked, he feels more attached to humans than to his own species :) But then, maybe these are the characteristics of all sheep, I don't know, I didn't know many of them.

  • He doesn't feel "attached" to humans as neither Ben or Peter belong with humans or animals.

    Read the description, they're both outcasts and that's probably the principle of their connection.

  • i love this video.

  • amazing

  • Ben's cute :D

  • this is really a touching story. shows that you dont have to be human to love.

    also anyone have any ideas as to the soundtrack for this movie. the music is very inspiring

  • Any info on the soundtrack?

  • Wonderful video.

  • perfect

  • 5:02 - for an awful moment i thought he was killing Ben!

  • AWW!

  • I'm lost for words... really a tear jerk er.

  • 3:17 is one of the most gorgeous things I've ever seen. What a beautiful bond.

    For the people speculating that he has sex with the sheep, is it necessary to make something so lovely so ugly?

  • You shouldn't really care about close-minded assholes.

    I mean, one can always think of that, it's an hypothesis that comes to mind imposed by a cultural context of sexual libertinity; if one, thought, is stupid enough to actually externate that as its own truth it just doesn't deserves attention.

  • SO CUTE

  • i love this showing a true bond between man n man best freind no matter wat breed it is

  • Fantastic. Werner Herzog described this perfectly 'This one has a wonderful human touch to it', with the added ingredient, humour, this is by far my favourite short film documentary. Congratulations to producer and director.

  • Not me ! !

    But now that u mention it...

  • hahahah!

  • There was dust on the lens >.>

  • wtf?

  • I like this.....The peaceful atmosphere really appeals to me......I like the creativity and the message.......

    Thank you for sharing....

  • I love this!!

  • oh well, taste is an individual matter. some people DID watch it till the end, and some even watched it repeatedly. maybe u just weren't the intended audience ;)

  • what are you talking about? I loved the first 3 minutes. The cinematography is absolutely gorgeous, the mood is greatly enhanced by the excellent choice of music.

  • Peter adopted Ben as a lamb, brought him up and then abandoned. If he really wanted Ben to be able to live with and fit amongst other sheep, he should have done it long ago, not when Ben has become an adult ram already.

    Seemed like Peter just needed to see that someone actually does care for him. Sometimes people build walls not to keep others out, but to see who will want to get in.

  • Too true brotha, glad to see some saw past the b.s.

  • Aww =] This brings a smile to my face. <3

  • love it....

  • ahh, i love a happy ending.

  • Very good, nice story!!!

  • DUDE =o Then why do you WATCH it?

  • beautifull!!!!!

  • This put a smile on my face...very nice 5 Stars

  • I love it. They're such good pals you can tell.

  • So cool, a sheep that thinks he's human! You could tell he couldn't be bothered with the other sheep when he dropped Ben of & vice versa.

  • nice vid 5+

    i like it ;-)

  • very nice :) a dog-like ship :) and then if u ever hear that animals can't think or they have no feelings - smash their faces! animals can and they are our friends and we are not for them.

  • A great little film..well done to you!

  • Is that Ireland? So pretty there.

  • i think ben was crying when he was running towards peter

  • if only i could rate it twice...5*

  • OMG made me cry when he left him.

  • cute!!!

  • i wish i have someone like ben

    i LOVED it

  • I liked it, you just know he didnt want to get rid of ben haha :)

  • I saw it on EBS TV.(EBS International Documentary Festival 2008 )

    great Documentary^^

    I often see this short film.

    I wonder how Peter & Ben have been these days.

  • This story touched me.^^

  • I love this film. Really touching when I saw it last year at Soho shorts, and still is now.

  • loved this video. i loved the relationship and evan though he tryed to let go of hom the man was still looking out for him. my favourite bit was the sheep running up to meet him again.

  • hahaha yeah i really did enjoy watcning this.. i can see how it got so many views .. and i agree with the comments below. well most of them anyways.

  • This reminds me of my Squirrel Penny

  • wow, so many parallels to life. Story of the Prodical son in the Bible, how we all need companionship in some form, how we tire of society yet still yern for relationships, connecting with the beauty of Gods creation, meditaion and prayer by onself in nature, struggle within ourselves to find peace and our place in the world, etc etc. Wow, thankyou for sharing this !!!

  • amazing isnt it

  • so sad.. i luved th bit when he shaves th sheep and is showing it to him

  • lmao

  • That was pretty cool. I love Dumbledore!

  • i rather enjoyed this and found it to show how having something as simple as a relationship with a sheep we can be happy in life. don't be fooled any longer and go find your black sheep.

  • i thought this would be about spiderman

  • haha..

  • how apt

  • Very touching story. The movie nicely emphasizes the mans feelings and it also made me wonder what the sheep may know or think. I rarely consider animals to be thinking beings, but this sheep somehow did the trick...

  • Beautiful.

  • :'( :'( I was about to cry because of this vid :'(

  • me to

  • i think that guy really missed the sheep

  • thats not funny

  • animal love.

  • :'(

  • good film

  • *tear*

  • Notice how he uses seeing if Ben is gone yet as an excuse to look for signs of Ben coming back.

  • that was cool...man and animal as one

  • What the hell did I just watch, I thought these were supposed to be funny? (the black hole one was funny).

  • They aren't supposed to be funny. They are supposed to teach you morals. Do you know what those are?

  • how was "the black hole" funny?

  • read the description...

  • I#m touched. Very good film. You know, he said "I don't mind if he left", but you could feel that he wanted the lamb to come back.

  • On the surface it is a touching story but the selfishness of the old man is off-putting. Just like the humans in his life, he welcomes and banishes them from his life as he sees fit.

    I liked the video but didn't like the underlying character of the old. He's a wolf in sheep's clothing. Poor innocent Ben.

  • you definately would not say that if you knew him....

  • Made by your sister?

    Excellent, then maybe you can provide me some info on the soundtrack... can't find it anywhere.

    I would like some points on how he made to live alone.

    Thanks!

  • i love the music!

  • I swear to god. This is the most beautiful piece I had ever seen in youtube.... This is also the first time I seen such an innocent, pure kind life. The old man was a pure soul among humans nowadays, in the future and of the past.

  • AMAZING!

  • yiff yiff

  • peter and ben forever!!! <3 <3 <3

    omg that's so cute!! peter wanted ben to come back more and more everytime he said he didn't =P

  • Amazing how the sheep comes back to Peter. Incredible emotions. Ben is also aware he can open the gate. All things I wouldn't have thought possible coming from a sheep. 5/5, Thanks for sharing!

  • some guy and his sheep, lol it's strange but... awesome

  • this is an awesome video

  • What the hell does that mean?

  • BRILLIANT  !!!! sniff..

  • Furryfag! :P

  • sheep wanted to be isolated aswell ,,,lol,,,fucking sad

  • Silly, lonely man and his sheep--sadly strange.

  • and strangely sad

    ;)

  • Wow, powerful emotions, so sweet :I :)

  • It is hard 2 letgo of the things uve grown attached 2. And u cant go back to whatever emptiness u had before for what ur brain has gotten acutomed 2 will leave cold silence afterwords.

  • wow

  • this was amazing...i have to admit, it made me cry.

    just watching the sheep finding its way back to be with him.

    it was beautiful. ^_^
