The Toe Tactic

Mona Peek is jarred delayed grief for her dead father when she finds out her childhood home has been sold. Her emotional plight is the subject of an esoteric card game played in another dimension by four animated dogs. When Mona returns to her back yard to disinter her father's relic, a piece of bone she'd buried there, the game begins. Over the course of an oddly problematic but magical weekend, the dogs mystify an unknowing Mona by stealing objects, impersonating humans and intervening with fate.

THE TOE TACTIC uses lice action and animation to explore the interaction between the human and magical realms as Mona finds her way to reconnect with her world.
