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.
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!
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...??
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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 !!!
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.
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...
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.
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 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!
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.

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