Dogman

Marcello lives in an Italian village on the seashore not far from a big city - a very soft-hearted man with little ambitions. He dreams of only one thing - to go on a long trip with his beloved daughter. Marcello's life is divided into 3 parts: taking care of his little girl Alida, working in a hairdresser for dogs called "Dogman" and very dubious criminal cases with the local authority Simoncini.
