The New Tenants

Shorts in Competition: Narrative
| USA, Denmark | 21 MINUTES | English
Comedy

A prying neighbor, a glassy-eyed drug dealer, and a husband brandishing both a weapon and a vendetta make up the welcome wagon for two men on what might just be the worst moving day ever. Their new apartment reveals its terrifying history in a film that is by turns funny, frightening, and unexpectedly romantic.
