Roman returns to the land he has just inherited from his grandfather. Fully decided to sell this vast but desolate property near the border with Ukraine, he is warned by the local cop that his grandfather was a crime lord and his men will not let go of the land - and their smuggling business - without a fight.
Bogdan Mirică: “Dogs is about three men who against all odds are very similar. They don’t just fight each other. Actually, they mostly struggle with themselves… they’re aware that their nature is profoundly corrupted but they just can’t help it.”
