Marcello is a small and gentle dog groomer who wants two things, to look after his dogs and take his daughter on exotic holidays. To fund this lifestyle he runs a side business which has an unsavoury clientele and he soon finds himself involved in a dangerous relationship of subjugation with Simone, a former violent boxer who terrorises the entire neighbourhood. When Simone exploits him too much Marcello must make a crucial and potentially dangerous decision in order to regain his dignity.
“Dogman is one of the best Italian films of recent times,. Its main character, the dog groomer Marcello is a wonderful creation: loveable, vulnerable, seedy and comic all at the same time.” (The Independent) Won Best Actor, Cannes 2018: EFA Best Actor 2018
