Don't Sell The Tiger

After the death of their father, three sisters return to the family home to pack up his belongings. But the squabbling siblings can't agree on the fate of one family heirloom - a mysterious bronze tiger. As the sisters clash, this fast-paced, energetic short film takes us back to 1945 Japan, the Coronation in 1953 and the summer of 1981, to tell the story of this creepy antique and its (possible) malign influence on this troubled family.
