Trama

A woman pauses her career to be a stay-at-home mom, but soon her domesticity takes a surreal turn.

A woman, thrown into the stay-at-home routine of raising a toddler in the suburbs, slowly embraces the feral power deeply rooted in motherhood, as she becomes increasingly aware of the bizarre and undeniable signs that she may be turning into a dog.

Once, she was an up-and-coming New York City installation artist. Now, she is an exhausted, sleep-deprived stay-at-home mum struggling to juggle marriage and maternity. As the endless succession of busy mornings and hectic nights takes a toll on the overwhelmed mother, subtle changes to body and mind leave her guessing. Is chronic stress turning this mother into something else? After all, life can be a bitch. But motherhood is no better either.—Nick Riganas
