- Synopsis:
In the middle of the Mojave desert rests an abandoned phone booth, riddled with bullet holes, graffiti, its windows broken, but otherwise functioning. Its identity was born on the Internet and for years, travelers would make the trek down a lonely dirt road and camp next to the booth, in the hopes that it might suddenly ring, and they could connect with a stranger (often from another country) on the other end of the line. This is the story of four disparate people whose lives intersect with this mystical outpost, and the comfort they seek from a stranger's voice: There is Beth (Annabeth Gish), a troubled woman facing dilemmas with her love-life and a recurring, baffling crime; Mary (Tinarie van Wyk Loots), a young South African, who is contemplating selling her body for the funds to escape her dreadful existence; Alex (Christine Elise), a woman who is losing her lover, Glory (Joy Gohring), to the belief she is plagued by aliens, and Richard (Robert Romanus), driven into desperation by a separation from his wife, who happens upon the booth after his failed suicide attempt. Exploring themes of love, death, the mystery of the universe, and the phenomenon of inter-connectivity, 'Mojave Phone Booth' pitches us deep into the lives and psyches of these working class characters in Las Vegas. - Actors:
