Our Students Council members were the people who introduced us to this interesting game and we thank them for that.

When Cape (Dennis Fitzgerald), his ill father (David Fox), a stranger from the street (Sherry Smith), Cape’s mother (Terry Tweed) and her lover (Guill­ ermo Verdecchia) all gather to­ gether, the hidden truth behind each character begins to surface. With a twist of humour, White Biting Dog spins with the madness that is often present under the polished surface of families in modern-day society.
