Please come to the screening of Dust & Illusions July 17/18th.

It's a benefit for Burners without Borders, organized by the Detroit/Michigan Burner community. More info on the film here:

One documentary
30 years of Burning Man history
45 minutes of mesmerizing archives
21 interviewees telling their stories
5 years to produce the film
1 independent filmmaker

But the film is much more than great statistics!! It's a reflection in the world we live in today, far beyond Burning Man. It's not a film to make you feel good about Burning Man, it's not a film made in the home movie style, it's a film that has so many parallels in our own lives, as a fight for an ideal and how it changes and evolves over a lifetime. Many parallels with the way our societies grow and go, and start again.

Dust & Illusions looks at 30 years of history of Burning Man all the way back to the late 1970s deep into the origins of the event. Through 21 interviewees the film presents the philosophies that fueled the creation of the festival, and its evolution from a small gathering of friends to the largest “counter-culturalâ€
