Out For Ice Cream
Synopsis
Under a blazing summer sky, Chloe, Jenny (12 years old), and Squeegee (19 years old) share one last ice cream at the local dairy bar. It's a poetic animated chronicle of childhood friendship, its challenges in the face of adolescence, and the first fractures of friendship.
