"I worry about everything. My whole life's full of worry. I worry about whether or not I can justify being here, diverting money away from the family. Is it worth it? Are the results worth it?"

From the opening frames, SALT establishes convergence as it's core theme: earth and sky, body and spirit, life and art. Capturing award-winning photographer Murray Fredericks on his annual solo pilgrimage into the mesmerizing and alien dreamscape of Australia's Lake Eyre, the film is a visually stunning meditation on the physical and emotional landscapes of one human being as he stands before the universe.

Are the results worth it? Judge for yourself at POV's online photo gallery, which features dozens of photos from Fredericks' time on Lake Eyre as well as a link to an interview with the artist himself.
