Truth or Consequences (2020)

Truth or Consequences: Directed by Hannah Jayanti. A speculative documentary about a small desert town in southern New Mexico. Set in a near-future when humans are leaving Earth for other planets, the film tells the story of the people who stayed.

“Truth or Consequences is a documentary unbounded by any presupposed forms; a captivating portrait of a place and its inhabitants caught in an elusive promise of the future that may never come. Jayantiu0026#39;s approach is truly authentic. An experiment of film as a time-scape, where the arrival of the future is a decaying memory, and memories of things long lost are the present tenderly excavated.”
