About

When an overwhelmed, single dad pig moves his piglets into a rundown trailer park, he fears he’s failed his family. But soon his kids create a wildly imaginative game from a simple cardboard box, and Dad has a choice: dwell on the past or join them on their intergalactic adventure.

Cardboard, Written and Directed by J.P. Vine, was inspired by two things: a family road trip across California, where desolate desert communities and the people in them triggered abundant ideas for a new short, and his own memories of childhood.
