Through the Repellent Fence: A Land Art Film

This documentary presents the work of Postcommodity, an interdisciplinary arts collective made up of artists Raven Chacon, Cristóbal Martinez, and Kade L. Twist. They conceptualize the Repellent Fence, a two-mile long ephemeral monument that symbolically connects the US and Mexico.

The film delves into themes of indigenous identity, community involvement, and the role of art in addressing cultural and political issues. It showcases how the collective engages with local indigenous communities to create meaningful art that resonates deeply within the context of the USA-Mexico border.

Through its focus on arts and culture, the film raises awareness of indigenous rights and the significance of land in cultural expression. Collectors of documentary films or those interested in contemporary indigenous issues will find value in this thought-provoking exploration of art as a medium for social commentary.
