This expressive Latvian animated film plunges us into a grotesque and unhinged religious universe steeped in excess and perversion. Set in the 18th century, the story unfolds in a bleak Baltic village where witch hunts and other atrocities reign – and where a werewolf-like figure embarks on a mythical quest for revenge.

The polished and visually striking animation, combined with heavy synth-driven music, creates an alien and nightmarish world that feels completely unrestrained. Here, profound horror coexists with outrageous humor. Directors Raitis and Lauris Ābele cultivate a glowing, morbid aesthetic that is as repellent as it is mesmerizing.

The film has attracted attention at festivals worldwide, particularly among fans of the fantastical and the grotesquely comic. Dog of God is at once exploitative and thought-provoking, reveling in its crude splendor. Screenings are presented in collaboration with Trondheim Film Club.
