As reported by Know Your Meme, the widely circulated image is a still from a 1984 Serbian film called “Pejzaži u Magli” (“Landscape in the Mist,” not to be confused with a Greek film of the same name).
Directed by Jovan Jovanović, the film documents that gloomy life of heroin addicts living under communism in Belgrade. The website Kino Kultura describes the film as a “drug saga” belonging to the “Social Horror” genre, which mixed hedonism and a strong political message to channel the suffering of the lowest ranks of society.
Not exactly lighthearted stuff. But, hey, take it out of context and it’s just a dog on the phone.
