BLUE DESERT, an Otherworldly Sci-fi Drama on DVD

BLUE DESERT, an Otherworldly Sci-fi Drama arrives on DVD Sept. 10 from IndiePix ClassicsIn a future seemingly devoid of memory where humanity has lost its purpose, a young man named Ele guided by intuitions and dreams, goes off in search of the meaning of life and existence. Revelations and symbols set him on a path of enlightenment, leading to enigmatic encounters with a prophet-like painter of the desert (Chico Diaz) and a beautiful woman named Alma (Maria Luísa Mendonça) whom he soon realizes is his soulmate.
