Dog Shit (2026)


This is a short from a a film collective in Liverpool called People Versus TV. Its a wickedly pointed film that speaks volumes about our society. The film is the brief tale of a man who thinks that a new deodorant will make him a better person.  Its a biting take on the  way many people think they are going to get to ahead.

Running a brief four minutes DOG SHIT is a bracing introduction to People Vs TV.  While the fact that the film is being told with an action figure may make you think it's not going to be good, but the truth is the group uses the technique to make their point. I like that you can feel that the film isn't just a cheap joke. There is weight to what we are seeing beyond just being funny. I'm impressed enough that I want to see what the group does next.
