Returning Home

9 min

A quiet, intimate short that sits with grief and unspoken tension between two sisters in a familiar house.

Tagline
The hardest part isn’t coming back — it’s staying.
Overview
Clara reluctantly returns to her childhood to be with her sister, Alma, and help pack up their recently deceased mother's house. When a vase is accidently broken, the unsaid words between the two sisters come to the surface.
