A teen skinhead embroiled in family turmoil in a Slovak town of ethnic tensions and rising nationalism confronts the news he has a half-Roma half-brother in My Dog Killer. The use of non-professionals adds to the sense of grim realism in what was the second feature for director Mira Fornay and a breakthrough to wider recognition for her when it won one of Rotterdam’s Tiger awards for newly discovered talent in 2013. She is now working on third feature Cook, F**k, Kill (Frogs With No-Tongues), described as an absurdist drama about domestic violence.
