Nomads

Feature Documentary (in post)

Director, Producer, Sound

The real-life Nomadland told through the interwoven stories of three unforgettable characters. Sixty-year-old Jo Lynn escapes an abusive marriage by moving into a minivan, then sets out on a quest for love and acceptance. Twelve-year-old Leilani struggles to come of age after her parents, seeking adventure and togetherness, abandon the rat race and move three kids into a 350-square-foot RV. And Bob Wells, the nomadic movement’s star evangelist, repudiates the American Dream as he crusades to build a new society on the fringes of civilization.

When road life forces all three to adapt to unforeseen adversity, their separate journeys build to a collective climax—and a single truth shines through: The cost of radical freedom is loneliness. It’s our bonds of love and attachment that give our lives meaning.
