Logline

PINKY PROMISE

Sarah and her parents are celebrating her confirmation. Not wanting to eat the lobster on her plate, Sarah hides it under the table. When her father finds the hidden food, he feels that there must be consequences. The moral of this viciously funny short film is that promises are kept!
