Dust & Illusions: The film explores the entire history of the Burning Man event. Whether you have been to Burning Man or not, or are even interested in the subject, the film goes beyond the simple event in the desert, and looks at how ideals/utopias we've had in our youth evolve through an entire lifetime. Specifically, the documentary starts in the late 1970s with 2 groups of people out of the San Francisco underground movements all the way to the multi-million dollar business Burning Man has become, and how politics might have replaced philosophies.

You want to see the film but it's not coming to your town, well it's BM style, you have to organize a screening. Don't hesitate to contact me if you want to share this film with your fellow citizens. All these screenings above are happening because people came forward. This is a real INDIE film (not like sundance though) supported by the community.
In 1988, people organizing BM didn't even know about the Black Rock desert, this is how it came on their radar:
