HOWLING
A SHORT BY LAURA VAN HAECKE
SYNOPSIS
Together with her mother Iris and her half-sister Rani, nine-year-old Bo moves to the countryside. Slightly bored in the new environment of fields and farms, the sisters look forward to the weekend when their fathers come to pick them up. Bo's father, however, doesn’t show up time and time again. While Rani spends the weekends at her dad’s, Bo often stays home alone. In the isolated landscape, she has to rely on herself and become more independent.
