What could possibly go wrong with a shy wolf at a bunny house party in the middle of the woods? Not what you would expect. In this award winning short, we are “itching” to find out what could be troubling such an adorable animal. The dark foreboding woods translate as a metaphor for the mind of this troubled protagonist. She becomes lost and bewildered by her ailments, until a friend shows up and helps soothe her wounds. Lacking any kind of dialogue, we are still invited to empathize with the creatures; their fears, their passions, and the itches they can’t seem to scratch.

Ring Around the Mulberry Bush by Pox Films Inc.2016-10-12
Ring Around the Mulberry Bush is a short film with a heartfelt and sentimental narrative. We are taken into the seedy side of town and given a window into the psyche of characters struggling with their history and existence. Through very thoughtful dialogue and tentative self-reflection, they open up their closet of skeletons, and allow for conversation to heal their scars from the past.
