French Braid
A deeply emotional coming-of-age short film about two sisters whose bond is shaped through childhood rituals of hair braiding, admiration, and growing pains. When younger sister Parker finally gets the French braid she’s dreamed of her entire life, she’s confronted with a heartbreaking revelation that forever changes the way she sees her sister, family, and love. A tender exploration of memory, identity, and loss.
