Award Winning Independent Cinema

The latest drama from Matteo Garrone features a Cannes award-winning performance from Marcello Fonte as a gentle dog groomer who finds himself in a dangerous relationship with a violent former boxer. Marcello is a small and gentle dog groomer who wants two things, to look after his dogs and take his daughter on exotic holidays. But to fund this lifestyle he runs a side business which has more unsavoury clientele. When the boxer exploits him too much Marcello must make a crucial and potentially dangerous decision in order to regain his dignity. Garrone, the master filmmaker behind Gomorrah, returns to the crime thriller genre with the tension filled and relentlessly captivating Dogman.
