MARCELLO IS a dog-groomer who runs his own parlour in a run-down seaside town. However his peaceful existence is disturbed when he is terrorised by violent former boxer Simone.
Believing he can befriend and pacify Simone, Marcello gets caught up in a world of petty crime and drugs, a mistake that will have far-reaching consequences. This is Italian film Dogman, which will be screened by the Galway Film Society at the Pálás Cinema on Sunday November 4 and Monday 5 at 6.30pm. The film won Best Actor Prize for Marcello Fonte at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival.
