Snapshots for Henry is a Canadian short drama film, directed by Teresa Hannigan and released in 2006. Based on the short story "Scarlet Runners" by Collette Yvonne,[1] the film centres on a conflict between two couples who live next door to each other in the two halves of a duplex: Pent (Allan Hawco) and Angie (Zoie Palmer), a couple who live a wild party lifestyle, and Tim (Dan Petronijevic) and Joanne (Molly Atkinson), a more straight-laced professional couple with a new baby.
Prior to its production, the film's screenplay won the Screenplay Giveaway Prize at the 2004 CFC Worldwide Short Film Festival.[2]
The film premiered at WorldFest Houston in April 2006, and was later screened at CFC Worldwide, the Female Eye Film Festival, and the 2006 Vancouver International Film Festival.[3]
