HOWL 2026

Director: Doug Aitken

A poignant examination of the lives of residents in a small desert town where the primary industry is oil drilling. The work explores life in a town at the edge of the world; it's a portrait of the past, a town built in the early 20th century, where closed storefronts and boarded-up buildings now populate a desolate main street in a landscape where life has relied on the extraction of fossil fuels.
