Barking Dogs Don't Bite follows a chain of events unfolding at an empty commercial gallery situated in downtown Tel Aviv. The actions seem self-propelled, as if performed from start to finish by the space itself.
The same chain of events is played out once more at nighttime. This whole self-defense operation would seem quite pointless, since the space has remained intact, as shown in the video's concluding moments.
The gallery is clearly disconnected from its outside environment: it alone commands the frame, a scope that is narrowed and delimited.
