Mona Peek is jarred by a delayed grief for her dead father when she finds out her childhood home has been sold. Her emotional plight becomes the subject of an esoteric card game played in another dimension by four animated dogs. When she returns to her back yard to disinter her father’s relic, a piece of bone she’d buried there, the game begins. Over the course of a problematic but magical weekend, the dogs’ mischief – stealing objects, whistling, impersonating humans – helps Mona to reconcile her loss and reconnect with her world. (Anifilm)
