VALLEY OF THE TALL GRASS

A TV/VCR combo set is thrown out in an Oregon town, but it survives and circulates through the lives of various Indigenous characters of color. In this multi-character portrait, young sisters, an artist, a junkyard scrapper, and his skater daughter all find connection through this seemingly obsolete object.

CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
