scorched earth

Directed by James Benning

"scorched earth is a film that is part of the Untitled Fragments Project. It's 60 minutes at dusk, just one shot of the burned over forest (from this summer's fire) near my Two Cabins in the Sierra Nevada." - James Benning. This work first premiered at MSU in Zagreb as an installation with Ash 01 under the title Ash 01, curated by Tanja Vrvilo as a prologue to the 10th edition of her film festival, Film Mutations: Festival of Invisible Cinema (Filmske Mutacije: festival nevidljivog filma).
