She is covered in a thin layer of sweat and dust and glitter.
Bright lights pierce the air and the heavy hypnotic beat can be faintly heard through the water...
A Dog Called Monkey explores the issues and complexities surrounding sexual assault and the way stories of survival are warped in the afterwards. In a mess of share house parties, red wine and fairy lights, a young woman desperately tries to hold on to her truth. In the centre of it all, there is a bed. As her friends smother the memory, her world fractures as she tries to hide under the covers.
