When 13-year-old Craig O’Reilly (Willy Simeon) receives a refurbished piano for his birthday, he’s less than thrilled. Dull piano lessons drag on until he discovers the piano's uncanny ability to play itself. But this enchanted instrument isn’t all harmony and melody—it has a mischievous streak, drinking, smoking and even devouring the family cat. Unable to tame the unruly piano for his high school rock band’s debut, he opts for an electric keyboard instead, igniting the wrath of the jealous sentient piano. This darkly comedic short marked the screen debut of writer/director Jonothan Cullinane (Trifecta, We’re Here to Help).
