This is a desolate, sad little piece of art. A deep examination of a mentally impaired life in oppressed circumstances. Marcello Fontine is quite extraordinary in his role. A truly exceptional performance.
I can't say that there is much enjoyment in this movie and even revenge isn't sweet in the end. The entire movie is a metaphor for animal cruelty where the mistreated dog, beaten, stoic and yet with elements of warmth and even affection and loyalty when acts of kindness are present; eventually turns on its violent master.
The direction acting and sheer misery is mesmerising to watch.
A fantastic watch. Give this dog a bone!
