DVD BONUS CONTENT
Cutting Through Time - a documentary sketch by Terry Jones
Seneca Territory / 2014 / Documentary / English / digital / 16:9 / 3:50 minutes

This never-seen-before 4-minute video gives the viewer a peek behind the camera. Filmmaker, Terry Jones, records a scene with Jimmy, as he recounts how he stole his grandfather's butcher knife. The scene would eventually be re-filmed and included in the final version of "Soup For My Brother."
 
ASHES TO ASHES - a film by Terry Jones
Seneca Territory / 2014 / Documentary / English / digital / 16:9 / 9:38 minutes
 
This short film features Jimmy (from “Soup For My Brother”) as he uses his brother Danny’s firewood to roast traditional Iroquois white corn. This unreleased film influenced the filmmaker to re-shoot this documentary to focus the story away from the process of roasting the corn and instead concentrate on the relationship between the two brothers. The resulting re-shoot became what is now known as “Soup For My Brother.”
