The Year of the Dog

"The Year of the Dog" (2022) is an American drama — watch it online on iFILM. Matt is a solitary alcoholic on the wrong side of every decision. His dying mother asks only one thing: show up sober. He gives himself thirty days.

His AA sponsor takes him out to a Montana farm to wait it out. There Matt finds Yup'ik — a stray Husky no one has managed to reach. The dog and the man are both terrible at being helped. Rob Grabow wrote the script, directed alongside Michael Peterson and Andrew McGinn, and stars in the film — that combination gives it a rawness that the typical recovery-story structure tends to sand off.
