Bread Will Walk

The planet is starving, but a corporation called The Mill has the solution: miracle bread. Except it turns people who eat it into fresh loaves of walking bread. A devoted sister tries to save her little bread-brother, who’s being pursued by a hungry mob through twisted streets. Hunger reigns, reason crumbles. In a world that wants to eat you alive, can love defy appetite?

The animated short Bread Will Walk is a relentless fever dream of fear and loafing. With darkly delicious humour, this surreal chase unfolds in a constant morph of hand-drawn chaos—raw, like a napkin sketch, mirroring a world unravelling under the weight of society’s paranoia.

Masterfully baked by Alex Boya (Turbine), with all characters twitchily voiced by Jay Baruchel, this frenetic fresco of satire skewers the hypocrisies of corporate propaganda and its incessant kneading of a stale society into devouring whatever it’s fed—literally.
