MOONDOG is a docufiction about the disappearance of Egyptian  filmmaker Khairy Beshara, his subsequent transformation into a  dog, and his son's (Robert) search for him.  The documentary part deals with Khairy's family: his daughter's  wedding, his wife's depression, his nephew's anger, his son-inlaw's  geekiness, his late brother-in-law's wisdom, his son's  strangeness, his sister's workaholism, his mother's religiosity,  his niece's Americanism, and an Egyptian-American taxi driver's  tale.
