A
prying neighbor, a glassy-eyed drug dealer, and a
husband brandishing both a weapon and a vendetta,
make up the welcome wagon in the darkly satirical
short film, The New Tenants. Set amidst the as-yet-unopened
boxes and the hopes for a fresh start of two men on
what might just be the worst moving day ever, their
new apartment reveals its terrifying history in a
film that is by turns funny, frightening, and unexpectedly
romantic.

Wallace & Gromit have started a new
bread baking business, ‘Top Bun’ and converted
62 West Wallaby Street into a granary with ovens,
robotic kneading arms and an old-fashioned windmill
on the roof. The transformation is perfect. Although
business is booming, Gromit is concerned by the news
that a dozen local bakers have ‘disappeared’
this year – but Wallace
isn’t worried. He’s too distracted and ‘dough-eyed’
in love with former beauty and bread enthusiast, Piella
Bakewell. While they enjoy being the ‘Toast of
the Town’, Gromit soon realises his master’s
life is in jeopardy, and turns sleuth to solve the
escalating murder mystery – in what quickly becomes
‘A Matter of Loaf and Death.’
