Fergus

2013, 15 minutes

A character-driven drama about commitment and friendships falling apart. On the road. With a dog.

Mike and Will, twenty-somethings and childhood friends, have just ended a seasonal stint working as fishermen and are yet again jobless. They decide to follow Will’s whim and embark on a road trip cross-country to jump into another temporary job. However, things are complicated when a stray dog, Fergus, enters their lives, choosing Mike as his new significant other. With no apparent long-term plan for the animal, the two men take the dog along for the ride.
