Snake Trail is a story about searching for answers in the past. A young girl faces tragedy as her mother passes away and her grandmother reveals a secret: she is an illegitimate child. Without a father or mother to console her, the young girl seeks her answers from the past and ancient wisdoms that have always been within her reach. Sometimes it takes a catastrophic event to realize our whole potential and who we really are. Snake Trail is a moving short document of that fact and a brief examination of familial grief but also the importance of traditions passed down over generations.
