The documentary film from
Minot, North Dakota by filmmakers Angelika Brudniak and Cynthia Madansky, is about a life lived directly over a depot of nuclear weapons from the Cold War. The local residents’ voices - teenagers, housewives, employees of the Air Force - tell us about a daily life characterised by paranoia, surveillance cameras, racism and false alarms, while the camera continues its forays, merely taking in what there is to see. Like a mushroom cloud over the plain, Zeena Parkins’ ambient sound hovers above it all.
