Omschrijving
Washington, 1937. In the middle of the Great Depression, 22-year-old
photographer John Clark lands a big assignment when he is brought on
by the Farm Security Administration. He is tasked with documenting
the calamitous conditions of the Dust Bowl, a drought-stricken area
comprising the Oklahoma panhandle and surrounding states, in order to
bring the farmers’ plight to the public eye. When he starts working
through his “shooting script,” however, he finds his subjects to be
unreceptive. What good are a couple of photos against relentless and
deadly dust storms? Gradually, John finds ways to reach them, taking
a young boy under his wing, and getting to know a young woman, Betty.
But the more he shoots, the more he sees the awful extent of their
struggles, coming to question his own role and responsibilities in
all of this. What can one man do in the face of such a crisis? A
moving and unforgettable tale, inspired by real-life stories of
courage and perseverance against all odds.
