Argo (film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Argo is a short film written & directed by Jordan Bayne & Michael Knowles.
The film was shot on location in Joshua Tree and tells of two people living on the fringe. The story is set in the desert landscape of America and is synonymous with loneliness, desperation, and the unconscious longing for human connection.
Jordana Spiro [My Boys] plays Becca, a dispossessed soul. A chance encounter with Cal [Marcus Chait] becomes a collision course that will change their lives as they discover hope can be found in the most unexpected places and in the most unexpected people.
The story explores the struggles of being human. It is a story of hope and survival within a world bent on crushing the human spirit.
