Sweet & Sour
A bittersweet love affair between a dog and Chinatown
Errol, a hungry, stray dog living on the city streets, stumbles across Chinatown while foraging for food. Intoxicated by its alluring smells, tastes and exotic culture, Errol believes that he has discovered paradise. But everything changes dramatically when Errol believes that he may be on the menu. He flees Chinatown and must find a way to fill the new void in his life.
The first official, animated co-production between Australia and China.
