A Brief History of Chasing Storms

The film takes us on a journey across the vast expanses of the American heartland known as "Tornado Alley". This episodic road movie delves into themes of memory, inequality, and the complex history of colonisation in the region. It also examines how climate change has exacerbated weather phenomena, intertwining them with the concepts of disaster capitalism. As we travel through this landscape, each stop serves as a snapshot in time, revealing layers of history that have shaped the area's destiny. Alongside these weighty themes, there is also an exploration of human resilience and adaptability in the face of extreme weather events - a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who call this place home.
