The dog

Synopsis

"Étranges étrangers
Vous êtes de la ville
vous êtes de sa vie
même si mal en vivez
même si vous en mourez."

Jacques Prévert

Returning from their holidays, Emmanuel, Bouchra and their daughter Zoé run over with their car the dog of "Gros", a homeless person. The ultra-violent aggression that results from the accident troubles up the serenity of the family for long. The feeling of anxiety is reinforced when the family realizes that "Gros" is a neighbor...

Inspired by a true story.
