Directed by Kasia Adamik. Written by Heather Morgan. Produced by Tom Reed and Alicia Allain. Lucy, a professional pet sitter, escapes into a canine world where her only audible forms of communication are barking, growling and at times howling. Her compassionate and supportive husband Peter, struggles to come to terms with his wife’s mental deterioration and his longing for the old Lucy. He seeks counsel from an oddball band of characters including his best friend, a veterinarian and a psychiatrist. With bits of comic relief supplied from this highly unusual situation, Bark examines the desperation of a man dealing with his wife’s mental illness and questions if existing in a world of giving and receiving unconditional love is such a terrible idea. Starring Lee Tergesen, Lisa Kudrow, Hank Azaria, Vincent D’Onofrio and Heather Morgan.
