THE BIRTH
By Fardosa Daud

GENRE: Thriller / Suspense, Horror
LOGLINE: After the birth of a couple’s first child, a peaceful town is overrun by coordinated packs of dogs, and a wounded father must uncover why the animals believe the newborn is their leader before they tear the family apart.

SYNOPSIS:

The Birth follows Malik and Emma, a couple expecting their first child in a peaceful town. As Emma’s due date approaches, stray dogs begin appearing in alarming numbers, moving with unusual coordination. After the baby is born, the dogs attack the family home, injuring Malik and forcing the town to intervene. Emma is left unable to walk, and the family hides in an abandoned church where the dogs surround them—not attacking, but waiting. Malik realizes the dogs are acting on pure instinct, responding to the newborn as their leader. In a chilling twist, Malik learns the dogs are not protecting the baby from humans—but protecting humans from what the baby may become.
