Synopsis

Premiered at The Rotterdam International Film Festival (IFFR 2008), the film Beware Dogs captures two days in the life of four eclectic musicians and their struggle to create music. Across the city, in a house dating back to a Delhi long forgotten, four musicians have a song to weave. Indian Ocean, as the band is called, is a bit of the modern city in itself. They draw myriad folk & local traditions fusing them with the sound of the contemporary, creating music, which is diasporic. In one quiet January afternoon the film lives the lyrical mood of four artists and shares their travails of creating and transforming their own music as they laugh, grimace and sway tying the pieces that go on to become a new song. Beware Dogs holds a band in a moment where friendship, togetherness and music reside.
