Why 'More Than Frybread'?
“I wanted to make a movie that gave us an excuse to shoot on numerous reservations, and make new friends. I thought frybread was a good thing that had the potential to bring people together. I liked the idea of a mockumentary frybread contest, and I wondered why there wasn't a real national frybread contest. I didn’t realize how big frybread really was..."
- Holt Hamilton Why a Frybread Series?
“I had too much fun making the frybread movie and then watching the audiences reaction to the film was even more inspiring that I couldn't let this show end. I've wanted to make a series and this was a perfect opportunity to get it started. Now, if we could just find the backing to finish the series would be a dream come true!"
