Junkyard Dog
Childhood friends Dog and Mirales' relationship is upended when Elsa arrives in their small village in the South of France, but as romance blossoms for Dog, jealousy eats away at Mirales.
Director: Jean-Baptiste Durand
Overview
Childhood pals Dog and Mirales live in a little village in the south of France and spend their days just hanging out. To kill time, Mirales has got into the habit of teasing Dog mercilessly. But this summer is different: Dog meets Elsa and romance blossoms. While jealousy eats away at Mirales, the distance that opens up between the two friends will allow each to grow and define himself. A social chronicle of solitude and of the feeling of being in love, Junkyard Dog also questions the gentleness and masculinity of its characters. A remarkable film with exceptional performances by Anthony Bajon and Raphaël Quenard.
