Moon Dogg

Small-time Arizona filmmaker Jerome Doggman has a plan: lure a desert-dwelling fundamentalist sect into one of his scathing exposes on religion. Things go awry when Dogg stumbles across nefarious doings and winds up murdered... But, wait! Dogg comes back to life in the body of the subject of his expose, a fundamentalist teenage boy. Vehemently anti-religious in his previous existence, Dogg must now endure life as the subject of his own contempt. To make things worse, he's smitten with the teenage boy's older sister, Florence, who cares for her brother with strained, loving patience as he kicks and screams against the austere religious world he finds himself bound to. Meanwhile, Dogg's elusive memories return to him in confounding pieces, and the men who killed him the first time slowly sense something in the wind-that Dogg isn't really dead. Taking place along the Ajo Highway, which runs through the Tohono O'odham Indian Nation of southern Arizona, this allegorical tale of Dogg's extraordinary journey explores themes of empathy and atonement, all through the mystifying world of reincarnation. Under an allusive desert moon, the saguaro cactus dance and the thunderbirds hover above, as Dogg's need to remember who he was in his previous life takes on real urgency-His killers are closing in, and they want Dogg dead again.
