A Thousand Roads (2005, 40 min.) Chris Eyre (Cheyenne/Arapaho). A Thousand Roads threads together four stories, taking us into the life of a stressed-out Mohawk stockbroker in Manhattan; a young Inupiat girl sent to live with her grandmother in Barrow, Alaska; a Navajo gang member who must find his core values in his reservation on the mesas of New Mexico; and a Quechua healer in Peru, attempting to save a sick child. Each story explores what it means to belong to a specific community.

More than a Museum (2007, 10 min.) Produced by the National Museum of the American Indian. A brief look at the history of the National Museum of the American Indian in New York and its dynamic programs.

Snowsnake: Game of the Haudenosaunee (2006, 11 min.) Produced by the NMAI Resource Center, George Gustav Heye Center. Featuring master snow snake maker and player Fred Kennedy (Seneca), this video introduces the lively traditional game that's played today by Iroquois men in competitions throughout Haudenosaunee lands in the Northeast and in Canada.
