Synopsis

A middle-aged woman sacrifices her artistic career to dedicate herself to home and domestic tasks. It is at that moment that she begins to feel at night that she is turning into a dog.

'Nightbitch' is directed by Marielle Heller, who has so far directed three feature films: 'The Diary of a Teenage Girl', for which she won the Grand Jury Prize in the Generation 14plus section of the Berlinale, 'Can You Ever Forgive Me?' and 'A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood'. In her television career, she has directed episodes for 'Transparent' and 'Casual', in addition to participating as an actress in the Netflix series 'The Queen's Gambit'.

After working with Alexander Skarsgård, Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, and Tom Hanks, it is now time to collaborate with the six-time Oscar nominee Amy Adams, whom we have recently seen in 'The Woman in the Window', 'Dear Evan Hansen', and 'Disenchanted: Giselle Returns'. Alongside the star of 'Sharp Objects' are Scoot McNairy ('Narcos: Mexico', 'Killing Them Softly'), Mary Holland ('Happiest Season'), Ella Thomas ('The Substitutes'), and Kerry O'Malley ('Case 39', 'The Killer').

It is produced by Searchlight Pictures and distributed by Disney Plus in Spain.
