There are few things in life as devastating as the loss of a pet. Pets are members of our family, our companions, and unlike people, pets (dogs especially) always offer their love unconditionally. A loss like this can leave a person reeling, and no matter what our societal norms around them are, they are difficult to get over. All That We Love begins with such a loss. Emma (Margaret Cho) holds and comforts her dog Tanner as he passes. It’s a solemn note to begin on, but it sets up Emma for the chaotic path she will take over the next few days because, as in real life, the world continues to turn.
