    Read a SJI file and return a `sunpy.map.MapSequence`.

    .. warning::
        This function is a very early beta and is not stable. Further work is
        on going to improve SunPy IRIS support.

    Parameters
    ----------
    filename: `str`
        File to read.
    start: `int`, optional
        Temporal axis index to create `~sunpy.map.MapSequence` from.
        Defaults to 0, which will start from the begining.
    stop: `int`, optional
        Temporal index to stop `~sunpy.map.MapSequence` at.
        Defaults to `None`, which will use the entire index.
    hdu: `int`, optional
        The hdu index to use, defaults to 0.

    Returns
    -------
    `~sunpy.map.MapSequence`
        A map sequence of the SJI data.
