CalArts grad David Fenster's feature debut tells the loopy story of a depressed businessman who inexplicably finds himself in the middle of the desert, gets nearly all his clothes stolen by a passer-by and eventually installs himself as the overseer of an abandoned junkyard paradise. But the movie is less about plot than it is about a feeling - specifically, an evocation of the desolate road poetry remembered from the best films of Wim Wenders and Jim Jarmusch. Fenster seems to say that you can feel as alone in the city as you can in the desert, and he has a pretty original way of saying it. - Scott Foundas LA WEEKLY

Starring David Nordstrom, Libby Hux and Lee Lynch. Music By Tatsuhiko Asano. Written and Directed by David Fenster

Trona has screened at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City as well as many film festivals around the world including the Los Angeles Film Festival, Cinevegas, the Viennale, the Miami Film Festival and the Buenos Aires Film Festival.

  • I was raised in that hell hole, got married at 15 just to get out of there. People may sound sweet and cluddy, but they were some of the most hateful people i ever met

  • Drove thru Trona in 2005 on a fly-drive holiday to the states. I tuned to my wife and said 'if we break down here we are going to die'. But I soon noticed how strangely beautiful it was. I might go back one day.

  • Anyone have the soundtrack for this movie? I need it.

  • went to trona to watch a large school ridgecrest, from 20 miles away,who elected to play its playoff basketball game at the trona gymnasium,,,a large old style wooden bleachers type gym,,,it was an attempt at getting an edge on ritzy,well to do school from orange county,,trabuco hills,,,,,the boys from trabucco got off their chartered bus and their jaws dropped,,,its like they got dropped off in hell,,,i heard one say,,its like were in the movie hoosiers,,,culture shock at its best
