Written and directed by Joey Clift (Cowlitz Indian Tribe) and created by a largely Indigenous team of Native animation professionals and allies, POW! is an 8 minute animated short about a Native kid scrambling to charge his video game console at a powwow.
The film screened at close to 100 festivals and won top animation honors at almost two dozen, including Best Native American Film at the 2026 Tonkawa Film Festival.
A 28 minute podcast interview with Joey Clift is available here, where he talks about the Cowlitz Indian Tribe, storytelling and animation, and Native comedians.
