Nomadland

Directed, Written, Edited, and Produced by Chloé Zhao / Starring Frances McDormand / Cinematography by Joshua James Richards / Based on Jessica Bruder’s 2017 non-fiction book “Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century."


But thy eternal summer shall not fade, 
Shakespeare - Sonnet 18


"The naturalistic approach meant Zhao’s script evolved with the workers they cast. Producers would arrive on location in advance of the shoot to record iPhone videos with possible characters, then send them to Zhao so she could work on her revisions.

'I tried to focus on the human experience and things that I feel go beyond political statements to be more universal — the loss of a loved one, searching for home.' - Chloé Zhao"
