Seven vignettes explore the difference between fantasy and reality, memory and history, and the joy and agony of the human condition.
The filmmaker of "Ricky" has a dog, Romy, who is afraid of other dogs, but she loves cats. Last year he adopted a friend for her: a cat named Ricky. This film is narrated -- but unscripted -- by his 7-year-old neighbor, Willa, and follows Ricky and Romy as they get to know each other.
