"Burning Man Voyage in Utopia"
Castro Theatre, San Francisco, CA (premier)
Written & directed by Laurent Le Gall.
World premier - Santa Cruz Film Festival 2008
Carnaval, tribe or mystic retreat? This big uproar for some will stay as a spiritual experience for the others. The film depicts the journey of artist David Best through the building of the “temple.” David Best dedicates this interactive artwork to the departed love ones and to the miracle of life. He’s offering his own creativity to the community. A clever anachronism, a miraculous idea and an exemplary symbol. The citizens of Black Rock City take ownership of it and write messages to their families, their friends, their departed love ones. The temple is full of tributes and becomes a sanctuary. The frenzy turns into meditation in that lost desert where the world is reborn each year from its own ashes.
Documentary 85 minutes.
