The Dog

The Dog tells the incredible true story of John Wojtowicz, a man who attempted to rob a Brooklyn bank in 1972 to finance his lover's sex-change operation. With unprecedented access, the film captures John's unapologetic and unfiltered account of his life, from his libertine lifestyle to his active role in New York's gay liberation movement. Through archival footage and intimate interviews, The Dog reveals a complex and larger-than-life character, who is both lovable and self-destructive. With the unconditional support of his mother Terry, John remains a subversive force, recounting the gripping details of the bank robbery and its aftermath. The Dog is a powerful and heartbreaking portrait of a man who lived life on his own terms, refusing to be defined by societal norms.
