TRONA Trailer (2004)

"David Fenster's feature debut tells the loopy story of a depressed businessman who inexplicably finds himself in the middle of the desert, gets nearly all his clothes stolen by a passer-by and eventually installs himself as the overseer of an abandoned junkyard paradise. But the movie is less about plot than it is about a feeling - specifically, an evocation of the desolate road poetry remembered from the best films of Wim Wenders and Jim Jarmusch. Fenster seems to say that you can feel as alone in the city as you can in the desert, and he has a pretty original way of saying it." -SCOTT FOUNDAS LA Weekly Writer, Director, Cinematographer, Editor, Producer: DAVID FENSTER Starring: DAVID NORDSTROM, LIBBY HUX & LEE LYNCH Music: TATSUHIKO ASANO Select Screenings Museum of Modern Art, Viennale (Vienna, Austria), Los Angeles Film Festival, Buenos Aires Film Festival, Flanders Film Festival (Ghent, Belgium), Cinevegas Film Festival Filmed In: Trona, CA & Los Angeles, CA You can support my filmmaking here: Substack: https://substack.com/@davidfenster Patreon:   / davidfenster   And find out more about my work here: Instagram:   / davidfenster   Facebook:   / david.fenster.7   Website: https://www.david-fenster.com Over the next year, I'll release my entire archive of films online for free.
