Nevada: Of Landscape and Longing



Nevada: Of Landscape and Longing is a reminiscence of a journey to the desert state of Nevada in the summer of 2009. It is a portrait of contemporary Nevada which documents the region as a place of extremes. On the one hand, it is a land of notorious desolation and silence, while on the other it is a capital of excess, artifice and paragon of the American economic collapse. 


Through the voreuristic camera of outsiders, the film explores the death of the American frontier through Nevada, a place where contemporary notions of progress are wrestling with the West’s wild landscape and mythology.
