Hello, I’m Cristian Ruben
The Rescue Cat & Dog Filmmaker
As a non-profit 501(c) (3) filmmaker, my mission is to document and share the authentic stories of cat and dog rescues in real-time. Unlike platforms that focus on happy endings and already-adopted pets, my work dives into the heart of the rescue process. I capture the raw, unfiltered moments of the challenges and triumphs faced by both the rescuers and the animals.
I focus primarily on the rescuers in the trenches, those who are directly involved in the day-to-day efforts to save and rehabilitate cats and dogs. My films highlight their dedication, hard work, and emotional journeys. I produce one-hour films because they provide the depth needed to fully explain the mission of these rescuers. To achieve this, I film for a minimum of 45 days to ensure that I capture the complete journey of each rescue operation for 1-hour films. Additionally, I create short films ranging from 8 to 15 minutes to spotlight specific stories and moments.
Through my films, I aim to raise awareness about the intense efforts required to save and rehabilitate cats and dogs. By showcasing these real-life stories, I hope to inspire others to support and participate in animal rescue efforts.
This is why donations and corporate sponsors are crucial. Their support enables me to continue documenting these important stories, providing the resources needed to produce high-quality films and reach a wider audience.
Join me in shedding light on the incredible work done by these dedicated rescuers and the resilience of the cats and dogs they save. Together, we can make a difference by telling the true stories that matter.

Be part of an extraordinary journey as we embark on our 50-state mission to document the incredible stories of cat and dog rescuers across the United States. As the only nonprofit 501(c)(3) filmmaker in the world, I dedicate my time and passion to creating impactful one-hour documentaries that shine a light on the unsung heroes saving animals in need.
Each state represents 60 days of filming, where I capture the raw, heartfelt moments of rescue operations, telling the stories that inspire change and compassion. From production to post-production, I handle every aspect of this work independently, driven by the vision to create a documentary series that makes a difference.
By sponsoring one or more states, you can directly support this mission, covering the costs of filming and helping to share these incredible stories with the world. Your sponsorship will not only fuel this 10-year endeavor but also offer long-term visibility as we bring these stories to audiences nationwide.
Together, we can raise awareness, support rescuers, and inspire action. If you’d like to join this mission, please reach out. Thank you for helping us make a difference—one state at a time!
