Brujas

Directed by Adrian Sandoval

USA | 5 min | 2023

Two witch sisters must get a flan in the fridge before their abuela comes home.

In an untouched desert of Mexico, a family of Brujas reside. Abuela concocts a juicy flan for dessert and instructs her two granddaughters, Lorena and Nina, to not eat the flan before supper time. As the sisters argue while putting the flan away, a passing rat hears the commotion and demands that they hand over their precious flan. After trying to stomp and chase the rat away from their flan, Lorena zaps the flan to life. This ensues a chase to get the flan back in the fridge before Abuela gets home from the store.
