US, 2007, digital video, black & white, 84 min.

9@Night resident antihero Malafide (Viharo), departs his part-time lover Tracey's restful digs for the streets. After a mental breakdown, he develops a strong bond with a homeless man as they embark on a journey to bring a “mystical man,” named People, “to his spiritual place.” Used distinguishes itself among the 9@Night films with its stark landscape photography, in which the desolate beauty of the Nevada desert mirrors the characters' own (Mill Valley Film Festival Program Notes).
