Avant-garde star Jodie Mack (The Grand Bizarre, MIFF 2019) returns with the third film in her Wasteland series, a ravishing study of nature shot in her singular 16mm style.

Following her acclaimed Wasteland no. 1: Ardent, Verdant (MIFF, 2018) and Wasteland No. 2: Hardy, Hearty, Mack’s latest observes the rapid thaw of natural forms, a world tender and unhatched in which future chaos is in repose – from the micro-cosmos to batter in a bowl, a living wreath to a dandelion. This is an interplanetary lullaby from one of the finest experimental filmmakers working today.
