In a series of warped, image-driven episodes, five strangers in the American West navigate overlapping landscapes of paradoxical fantasy. Constantly shifting perspective, the fractured narrative revolves around a poet, a hitchhiker and three motel rooms. A surrealistic combination of sparse dialogue, unsettling characters and abstracted motion graphics animation, the film is a new take on the classic road story.

Temporary Distortion is based in New York City and has presented work in the US, Canada, Australia, Japan and across Europe. Welcome to Nowhere (Bullet Hole Road) is a film based on Temporary Distortion’s internationally acclaimed 2007 experimental theater/cinema performance.
