We meet the protagonist of Dogs, Dora, on a train, traveling to Prague where she will attend film school in the hopes that she will get everything she wants from life: knowledge, freedom, sex, work, success, love, and money. It does not take long for Dora to discover sex, and what she thinks is love, in the form of a charismatic older photographer. For Dora, this is her first great true love, but for him, she is little more than a wraith of his great lost love.
Dogs is propelled by the millennial notion that everything is possible, so long as you strike the right poses. But the gripping story makes all too clear that intentions and passion all too often are tangled in dark energy and ego. Nonetheless, what is life, and the larger world, if it isn't lived to the fullest by each individual? It is this universal question that makes Dora's journey through Dogs so appealing, and revealing.
