In a remote, rain-soaked countryside in 1692, a sacred relic has been stolen. Passion, witchcraft accusations, shamanism and a deal with an otherworldly seed that possesses aphrodisiac superpowers lead to chaos in the accursed hamlet.
Premiering to acclaim at Tribeca Film Festival and chosen as Latvia’s official submission for the Academy Awards, this is a true visual feast — grotesque, erotic, and deliriously fun — a perfect folk horror destined for cult status. Created by the promising Abel brothers, with hallucinatory animation and a soundscape that blurs liturgy with nightmare, Dog of God seduces cinephiles and midnight-movie crowds alike: a delirious ritual of beauty, blasphemy, and ecstatic terror.
