good boy

Christian is young, handsome and rich, hence a success on Tinder. The first date with superlike Sigrid ends in bed – and with a grotesque surprise for the psychology student: the lap dog Christian told her about so enthusiastically is not an animal at all. Frank is a man in a dog costume who barks when he demands his food in the bowl and is led on a leash by Christian. Distraught, Sigrid flees, but eventually returns to the platonic partnership of convenience. After all, it’s the 21st century and who is she to tell Frank how to live. Plus it's really fun to scratch his fake fur head and play fetch. But is Frank really as harmless as Christian claims? And who is he anyway?

 

Throw your old-fashioned moral concepts overboard for this date movie of the wackiest kind. Viljar Bøe’s film transcends the boundaries of genre as much as those between humans and animals. Be a good audience and watch GOOD BOY!

Fear Fact

»The struggle to show HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES at the festival lasted about two years. The film was considered to be non-marketable due to its brutality. Today, that would be a part of its marketing campaign.«
