Frank has finally found somewhere affordable to live, but there's just one problem. He has to behave. A short magical realist short comedy film about loneliness and the rental crisis.

Frank has finally found a solution to his problem finding somewhere to live. He's moved in with Linda and Brian. There's just one small catch - he has to behave. Frank's friend Sarah is concerned about his new arrangement, but it's more than just his friends he might lose if he's not careful. It might just be his entire identity.

Dog House is an absurd comedy about the rental crisis, homelessness, friendship and loneliness. It was shot by Matt Riley (Poppy) and has an original score by Andy Russell.

Joz Norris, writer and star, says: "Miranda and I were exploring a surreal idea about a guy who has to pretend to be a dog because if he ever gets found out, he'll be kicked out of the family unit. At the same time, we'd recently moved house and as anyone who's had to deal with the London rental market recently will know, it was a nightmare. We tied both ideas together into an absurdist exploration of how it feels to not belong anywhere. I'm so proud of the strange, sad, ridiculous short we've made, and of the incredible team - cast and crew - who came together to make it. They're all legends."

Director Miranda Holms comments: "I felt there was room to explore the premise of Dog House beyond the ridiculous nature of a man dressing up as a dog in order to beat the rental market. I wanted to make sure the performances where kept grounded, so that it felt like we were part of Frank's lived experience, whilst embracing the darker themes of the loss of identity and how easy it can be to fall through the gaps of society when something goes wrong in your life and you don't have a safety net. My aim was to introduce an uneasy feeling in the audience beneath the silliness, so that after laughing at the more ridiculous elements of Frank's predicament they were left with a feeling of genuine concern."
