ComingSoon is excited to debut an exclusive The Big Dog trailer for the upcoming Australian comedy about a father who loses his son’s graduation gift money due to a complicated double life. The movie hails from Slated Distribution.
“The film takes audiences into the seemingly stable life of Richard Morgan, a successful family man whose carefully maintained world unravels over the course of one suspenseful Saturday,” reads the synopsis. “As a father and husband, Richard is accustomed to being in control, but his double life as a ‘pay pig’ in a secret financial domination affair with ‘Princess Paige’ pushes him to the brink. When he discovers that Paige has drained the account meant to fund his son’s graduation gift, Richard must scramble to conceal his deception and find $73,000 before the evening’s family celebration. The film deftly balances tension and dark comedy, exploring themes of masculinity, intimacy, and identity in an acidic, satirical style.”
