The Desert Project

In The Desert Project, Ida and her friend Rebecca return to Ida's house after a distressing day in the desert. Their film-crew friends have mysteriously vanished, and through an unusual twist of technology, it seems they have traveled back in time. This time travel leads to a disturbing moment involving Ida's father, who is revealed to have killed a crew member during a confrontation 35 years earlier.

The film captures a unique narrative that combines elements of suspense with comedic undertones. As Ida and Rebecca investigate, they discover an old 16mm black-and-white film in Ida's father's workshop, showcasing fragmented events from that fateful day. The combination of thriller and science fiction elements, along with a comedic approach, offers a fresh take on storytelling in the genre.
