Annie is an urban party girl who has disturbing flashbacks of a past where two children are being tortured. When she meets Gordon, a homeless man, Annie's visions become reality as the two are transported back in time to the darkest period in Canada's history: the forced Christian indoctrination of First Nations children, a 150-year period recognised by the United Nations as a cultural genocide.In the past, Annie and Gordon - themselves First Nations - meet Charlie and Niska, two Anishinaabe children imprisoned by colonial doctrines and strict, frightening task masters. Annie and Gordon struggle to free the children but risk entrapment in the past.Two of Canada's foremost Indigenous artists - acclaimed animator Terril Calder and literary star Joseph Boyden - collaborate to create an emotional and layered story dedicated to Indigenous Warriors. They make a striking statement about national colonial histories and the power of the written word. SNIP is a testament to the perseverance of Indigenous peoples and cultures in Canada.

SNIP

SNIP cuts up colonial Canadian histories by telling a story of survival amidst the country's genocide of Indigenous children. Annie and Gordon travel back in time to save Charlie and Niska, trapped in a nightmare reality designed to eradicate their culture.

In 1933, the infamous father-son musicologists, John and Alan Lomax, take their first field recording trip to penitentiaries in the American south. They are on a WPA project supported by Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal in an effort to record “songs that haven’t been heard by decent ears before.” John bribes their way into the Louisiana State Penitentiary, one of the most oppressive work farms in the country. John and Alan are given the execution room to record in and they set up their disc engraving equipment next to the electric chair. Two members of a chain gang reluctantly join them in the room. John tries to charm the men into singing and when that doesn’t work he threatens to tell the warden about their lack cooperation. Alan plays a previous field recording, which warms the prisoners up. The older prisoner, Father Dobie, agrees to sing. The prisoners sing a work song while John and Alan make a record. After the recording session, Father Dobie offer to pray for John. John is taken back by hearing a black prisoners talk out of turn. John tells Father Dobie not to pray for him, but the prisoners sing a hymn. Alan starts recording. John is visibly shaken by the prayer and sits in the electric chair. A dark pain deep inside John is dislodged.
