An immersive experience of the Sonoran Desert on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Leave your thoughts about El Mar La Mar.
| New York TimesBen KenigsbergThe result is simultaneously elusive and concrete: abstract cinema that packs a punch. |
| Times (UK)Larushka Ivan-ZadehA timely artwork that captures that desperate life and death pilgrimage across the Sonoran Desert like no other. |
| Observer (UK)Wendy IdeImmersive, disorienting, frightening: this experimental documentary takes its form from the landscape it explores. |
| Little White LiesGlenn Heath Jr.Long stretches of quiet help section off the film's eerie chapters. Here, El mar la mar leaves the viewer to their own thoughts, much in the way migrants might as they journey through "the terrifying silence" of the desert. |
| PopMattersSarah Boslaughif you're up for something more experimental, that is willing to observe patiently and unobtrusively... then you will probably enjoy this film. |
| GuardianCath ClarkeTheir film pushes the limits of documentary filmmaking and will likely push the tolerance of viewers. This is a demanding watch, the arthouse cinema equivalent of the marshmallow experiment, testing the attention span of audiences. |
