Luzes do deserto
Luzes estranhas aparecem nas noites do deserto. Os habitantes descrevem o que veem: chamas, bolas de fogo, lâmpadas voadoras, relâmpagos ou brilhos da terra. Partindo de experiências individuais, uma história comum, contada em coro, é desenhada. Presenciar esses fenômenos pode ser surpreendente, perigoso e até fatal.
A noite não é tão escura quanto parece e o deserto está cheio de vida. O vazio é um lugar para tudo. Luzes do deserto nos convida a abrir os olhos no crepúsculo e a ouvir os sons escondidos no escuro. Um filme de terror sonoro, em um deserto tenebroso.
