FRANKY
Christie has an unusual dog at home – her husband. Since husband Frank has decided to live happily ever after as Franky the dog, things have changed for Christie too. A nosy postman and a pile of torn files later, Christie has to take a stand in front of their daughter, who is quite ashamed of her father in his dog costume. Has Christie’s own lack of understanding perhaps long since given way to something else?
