The Dog Who Wouldn't Be Quiet (2021)

Sebastian (Daniel Katz) is an ordinary man in his thirties devoted to his loyal dog and working in a slew of temporary jobs. As he moves fitfully through adulthood, he navigates love, loss, and fatherhood - until the world is rocked by a sudden catastrophe, upending his already turbulent life. Photographed in stark black-and-white imagery, and awash in ruminative metaphor, Katz captures Sebastian's midlife coming of age in slices of life both specific and universal as he struggles to adjust to a world that is perpetually changing - and might be nearing its end.
