Experiencing Interruptions?

You get what YOU give

Arnaud, a hard-working but emotionless farmer, sees animals only as a means to an end. But when a tragic accident happens on his farm and his horse saves his life, he begins to understand the deep soul and intelligence of the animals. With the support of Anna and her friend, who have already recognized the connection between humans and animals, Arnaud embarks on an emotional journey full of surprises, heart and insights. "You get what YOU give" tells the touching story of a transformation that teaches us that love and respect can work across all borders.

Director Biography - Sandra Anna Wanner-Hügin

Born on July 11, 1967, I have always been passionate about animals and dedicated my life to improving their well-being. From a young age, I have sought to inspire others to see animals not just as companions but as sentient beings deserving of love, respect, and care.

Director Statement

With “You get what YOU give,” I aim to highlight the profound connection between humans and animals, showing the immense love and trust that can exist in these unique relationships. The film features extraordinary human-animal pairs that inspire us to be more compassionate and mindful in our interactions with our animal companions.

This project was brought to life with great passion and dedication by a team united by a common goal: to raise awareness for animal welfare. My hope is to touch audiences on an emotional level, encouraging them not only to see and feel the beauty of these connections but also to embrace and implement them in their own lives.
