In banding together on a journey that takes them to the edge of the woods, these complex and subversive characters draw strength from their friendships with one another to challenge current systems of oppression and to uncover the truth about the real monsters that inhabit their world.“Note from the co-writer, Jo Chiang:Our short film hopes to do more than engage and entertain.
