BURNING MAN: Voyage in Utopia
Produced by Free Run Pictures
Laurent Le Gall and Sandrine Di Rienzo
This 90 minute documentary is a portrait of artist David Best and the founder of the event, Larry Harvey. Here are their codes, here is their quest, here is their world...
In the desert of Nevada an ephemeral city emerges from nothing - Black Rock City! In this city, a statue is burned at the culmination of the Burning Man event, giving the event its name. For several years, David Best - a Californian sculptor – has built temples there with recycled material. A trip to burning man is a sociological and artistic adventure. Art is everywhere. Larry Harvey also talks about the “Frontier experience”. The event replays the American myth in real life : getting away from the sins of the old world , leave for the conquest of a supposedly virgin west and built a pure new community where everybody will be able to express their potential.
