Somewhere in Between
Directed by Denise Nicole Green
29 minutes

As a participant in the Burning Man Project, individuals are encouraged to step out of their “comfort zones” and to reject the passivity of the “default world” by fully expressing themselves through clothing and appearance, artistic media, and face-to-face interactions with strangers. The formation of communities at Burning Man through non-normative interactions with strangers allows individuals to “practice” new ways of engaging with their social worlds. This film shows how this experiment in ephemeral Bohemia, the Burning Man Project, provides a space for unbridled creative expression
