My Quest: The Film “Roosevelt Island – Land Without Dogs”

In 2004, as part of the Roosevelt Island Historiocal Society’s Film Festival a 14 minute short film was run titled “Roosevelt Island: Land Without Dogs”. According to the film summaries on the RIHS site:

“A hilarious mockumentry about New York's oft-forgotten island. Dogs have traditionally been excluded from island residency. See the consequences when some canines attempt to live on Roosevelt Island.”

The above YouTube film includes a few snippets of that film. I am hoping to find the rest of it and perhaps link to it if it is indeed available digitally and can be placed on-line.
