Wasteland

This experimental film incorporating themes from Western movies is about five women, who travel through a hot desert.
The sultry air quivers and the grasshoppers chirp as the women make their way across sweeping plains towards the unknown.
The journey, with its symbolic elements, culminates in an action that takes place off-screen.
In this film shot in Australia the landscape constitutes one of the characters in the story.
