George the Dog, Refugee

Anna and Lizzie share a flat with George, a tax consultant who thinks he is a dog. George supports them and does all he can to keep them satisfied. He agrees to their strict rules: At home, he may only walk on all fours, isn’t allowed to speak, must lick their feet and obey every orders. The girls begin abusing their power because George lets them. They believe he enjoys the torture, so they keep on degrading him. But in the end, George’s soul revolts – the man within him awakes and seeks freedom and cruel revenge.
