A documentary short by Alison Crouse

Every item has a story.

For nine months, the residents of Wake Robin prepare for their most highly anticipated event of the year: the tag sale. Over a thousand people flock annually to the continuing care community in northern Vermont, searching for treasures.

But where did all this stuff come from?

Light-hearted yet poignant, Tag Sale explores the complex relationship between people and their possessions, and asks what it means to finally let go.
