Saguenay international
short film festival

Synopsis

Sea, sun, beaches and family holidays. Just pick your dream destination from the catalogue, pack
your bags and hit the road. But what if the hotel isn’t as stellar as promised, your room has a bit of a naughty view, the dinner is surprisingly exotic and your luggage travels independently? Family above all!
