72 pages

“The Desert Club” tells the story of a photographer who crosses the desert and, in a certain circumstance, is unable to capture in images what the situation evokes within him. He returns to the desert and attempts to show, in a format that straddles the line between fiction and documentary, that the portrayal of this feeling emanating from the desert is as much authentic as it is artificial; as real as it is staged, and as shareable on the surface as it is impossible to communicate in depth.
We are then faced with a narrative that is as real as it is imagined, where the unique language of images reveals that the desert is as much a spectacle as it is an existential experience.
