Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning is a prequel to Ginger Snaps and Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed. The film takes place in 19th century Canada and depicts the ancestors of the first two films' Fitzgerald sisters, Ginger (Katharine Isabelle) and Brigitte (Emily Perkins), who share the same names and a dead-on resemblance to their modern-day descendants.
[edit] Plot summary
The trading fort, Fort Baileys, has had supplies brought back from Natives every year, but in 1815, their traders did not come back. When the Fitzgerald sisters, orphaned after their parents "drowned," are brought in by an Indian, the settlers in the fort welcome them with cold stares and high suspicion. They are reluctantly taken in despite low rations. After Ginger is attacked by a young boy turning into a werewolf (hidden by his father), she and her sister Brigitte must deal with both the increasingly dangerous men in the fort and a cryptic prophesy about "the red and the black" that could decide both their destiny and that of their bloodline.
