SWEET LIKE LEMONS Short Film Competition

SWEET LIKE LEMONS

U.S. Premiere

Screens as part of SHORTS PROGRAM: ANIMATION 1

SWEET LIKE LEMONS is a visual reflection on getting out of a harmful relationship and moving on. The title is a play on the saying “when life gives you lemons make lemonade,” only in this case there is no lemonade to be made but the lemons still taste sweeter than what you left behind.
