Set in the auteurist tradition of Antonioni or Benning, the "man alone in the landscape" trades shot and countershot with his own reflection in the walls of iconic Death Valley. Blank but magnificent desert hosts an interior, American phenomenology: part touristic, part cinematic. This is a landscape layered with countless films, photographs, paintings--myths which are as much a part of landscape as the root indifference of rock. Our narrator faces the monument in standard definition.
