A haunting, highly personal exploration of life in a country which few westerners are familiar with, Thom Fitzgerald’s “The Wild Dogs” introduces us to Geordie, a reluctant porn-site photographer sent to Romania by his bosses to find cheap, fresh talent for their thriving endeavor. Arriving in Bucharest, Geordie discovers a crumbling, but still beautiful city, overrun with the wild dogs of the title, and at the mercy of another kind of “wild dog” that has taken full advantage of the country’s transition to a free market society.
