ENDLESS COOKIE
97 MINUTES | ANIMATION, DOCUMENTARY | 2025
Synopsis
ENDLESS COOKIE is an imaginatively animated family portrait that explores the contrasting upbringings between two half-brothers, one white and one Indigenous, in a humorous oral history. As they reminisce into the recording microphone, the threads of their stories are punctuated, interrupted, or else hijacked by charismatic (and humorously animated) members of the extended family, including nine kids and ten dogs, who add to the narrative by indulging in their own reveries. The result is an exploration of identity, race, and Indigenous resistance to colonization within a First Nations community; an impressionistic and often surreal depiction of family; and a lived-in documentary of the creative process.
