Below Sea Level
Documentary
During a five year period an Italian filmmaker documents the world of down-on-their-luck individuals who live in a Californian desert trying to get by one day at a time. None of them has more than a vehicle, a dog and some clothes.
VIBE
A stark, observational gaze into the lives of desert nomads. It feels like a quiet, unflinching look at survival, finding quiet dignity amidst profound hardship. The film lingers, leaving a poignant, melancholic resonance.
