'Cala, My Dog!' is a philosophical tale reflecting the extraordinary struggle of an ordinary worker to reclaim his pet, his family and , basically, himself, often in conflict with the police. In 'Cala, My Dog!', Ge You has come out of his usual role in comedy movies and played an anxious low-income worker in search of his dignity and manhood. 

Produced by the award-winning producer and China's No. 1 box office director Feng Xiaogang ('Big Shot's Funeral', 'Be There Or Be Square', 'Sigh'), the film is directed by the promising young film talent, Lu Xuechang ('The Making of Steel', 'A Lingering Face').
