In "Heart of a Dog," a Moscow professor rescues a starving dog and attempts to transform him into a man through a controversial surgery. The dog, now named Sharikov, becomes increasingly human but inherits the negative traits of the donor, causing chaos in the professor's life. As Sharikov's behavior worsens, the professor and his assistant try to reform him, but their efforts ultimately fail. In the end, Sharikov is transformed back into a dog, leaving the professor to contemplate the experiment's consequences. This thought-provoking comedy-drama explores themes of identity, morality, and the limits of science.
