The Suitcase is a short film about a little girl from rural China whose mother attempts to calm her down as she is smuggled to Canada inside a suitcase. As she confronts airline attendants, guard dogs, and baggage handlers from within the suitcase, the mother paints a rosy picture of her surroundings in order for her not to panic.
This live-action / animated film deals with the resilience of immigrants, and the lengths they go through to establish a better future for their family.
