Lil Bub amp Friendz is a 2013 documentary directed by Andy Capper and Juliette Eisner. It stars Lil Bub and her owner Mike Bridavsky and looks at cats on the Internet, Internet memes and viral videos. Lil Bub amp Friendz premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival on April 18, 2013 and won the Tribeca Online Festival Best Feature Film.
Eisners original pitch was a video short about crazy cat people at the first Internet Cat Video Film Festival. Eisner contacted Lil Bub and Bridavsky because Vice worked with them on an earlier video. Capper and Eisner knew that Lil Bub would be the star as soon as they met her. They decided to make a fulllength film after seeing the turnout of 10,000 people at the festival in Minneapolis including travelers from New York, China and Seattle. Filming took five months.During filming Lil Bub had a serious health episode but recovered. Bridavsky called it a very scary week and Capper said this is going to be the most depressing cat movie ever. ........
