Where did we come from, where will we end up, and who will we impact along the way? From the unconditional love between pets and their owners to the complex bonds between grandmothers, mothers, and (grand)daughters, each of these seven short films invites audiences to reflect on the multifaceted nature of family connections and the impact of personal struggles on these relationships.

The Weight of a Dog follows new retiree Dawn's trip to chaperone her adult daughter's abortion, and explores Dawn's unexpected revelations around her own life and its next phase that this experience brings up for her. TWOAD is a story exploring the ever-evolving nature of mother-daughter connection and women learning from each other across generations.
