Strange experiences and realizations lead a grieving artist to reconsider his identity.
A Family That Steals Dogs REEL SOUTH
In the disorienting wake of loss, an artist begins to question his identity and beliefs. Strange experiences – windows that open themselves, phantom dogs on the highway, and all of the brief dog-lives that chaptered an upbringing in rural Arkansas – frame this exploration of grief, mental illness, and family connection.
