Ulrich Seidl's Dog Days slithers into a seemingly normal suburb in Vienna during a heatwave and uncovers the grimy goings-on of a set of characters that cross paths from time to time. This is the kind of film that's often made in the US so it's a nice change of pace to see it from a foreign perspective.

Synopsis. The weekend, the dog days. It is oppressively hot, south of Vienna, in the no-man's land of freeway feeder roads, shopping centers and single-family houses. The temperature rises, aggression rises. The asphalt blisters.
During these dog days of summer, six interwoven stories unravel, revealing a world of disillusionment and lonely souls. While the days are lazy and melancholic, spent lounging in underpants and bikinis; the nights, steeped in alcohol, sex and song unleash a fury of violence and raw emotions.
