Trailer for Wacky Animated Film ‘Endless Cookie’ About Half-Brothers

“The goal is to make something funny, beautiful, spiritual, political…” Obscured Releasing has unveiled an official trailer for an animated film called Endless Cookie, a wacky, funky, clever documentary tale of two-half brothers in Canada. This originally premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, and also played at the AFI, Hot Docs, MoMA, and London Film Festival. Endless Cookie is a new film from Seth & Pete Scriver – they’ve been painstakingly assembling it over 8 years. Two half-brothers, one Indigenous and one white, embark on a journey through time and place. They time travel from their remote home in Shamattawa to the vibrant urban landscape of the 1980s in Toronto. Pete & Seth are half-brothers. Pete is a First Nations carver, poet, mechanic and storyteller living in Shamattawa. He was recently nominated for a Hero award for saving his neighbors life by rescuing her from a house on fire. Seth is an artist, animator and carpenter living in Toronto. He won the Best Canadian First Feature at TIFF in 2013 for his animated feature Asphalt Watches. This is their first creation together. It’s a very odd, wacky film – reviews describe it as “the strangest, most seemingly nonsensical documentary in some time.” Looks super kooky and amusing.

Here’s the official trailer (+ posters) for Peter & Seth Scrivers’ animation Endless Cookie, from YouTube:

The film plays out like a particularly tangential fever dream–a colorful depiction of the many overlapping episodes of the brothers’ lives–from their upbringing in Downtown Toronto’s Kensington Market to Pete’s current residence in an isolated Northern Manitoba First Nation community. As they reminisce, their yarns are often punctuated, interrupted or else hijacked by the charismatic members of their family who indulge in their own reveries. Endless Cookie is at heart an impressionistic and often surreal depiction of family but it is also a documentary of the creative process. Endless Cookie is written and directed by half-brothers / filmmakers Peter Scriver & Seth Scriver (also a co-director on Asphalt Watches) making their first feature film. Produced by Seth Scriver, Dan Bekerman, Jason Ryle, Chris Yurkovich, Alex Ordanis. This initially premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. Obscured Releasing debuts Peter & Seth Scrivers’ Endless Cookie film in select US theaters starting on December 5th, 2025 coming up soon.
