DARK SKY LAND | NON-FICTION FILM

An interstellar archive of night sky ecology, humanity, astronomy, biodiversity, and wildlife in an era of unprecedented planetary transformation. Staged in one of the darkest regions in the Northern Hemisphere, a breathtaking and intriguing immersive voyage into the self, the cosmos and the natural world.

Dark Sky Land seeks to protect a 600-mile astronomical-wildlife corridor for future generations.

A multi-part interdisciplinary large scale project about a night sky-wildlife conservation mission.

The project takes place in a New Mexico high desert landscape of natural darkness, with an insightful look at our connection to the cosmos from earth, wilderness, the hidden impact of light pollution’s existential threat to nocturnal creatures, human health, astronomy, wildlife, biodiversity, pollinators, and cultural heritage.

The proximity to Aldo Leopold Wilderness in the Gila National Forest, the Continental Divide Trail, and to the Center of an ancient astro-archeological world, Chaco Canyon, is an inspiration to engage with ancestral knowledge, cultures, space science, the wildest environment.
