On a long and dusty road a routine cruise patrol takes an unexpected turn and spirals totally out of control. Cruise Patrol is an animated short that takes you on a wild ride. It has been screened at over 50 festivals in more than 22 countries and has won several awards. We thank all the folks who graciously helped us realize this film.
