Prairie Wind (2018)

Imagine standing on a grassy hill overlooking the prairie in western Nebraska. It's early summer and you are surrounded by yellow fields of Goldenrod, and whipped by a warm wind from the east. A storm approaches from the west. It's getting bigger and darker. Soon, the sky above you is filled with swirling black clouds and you are lifted upward, light as a feather, tossed by the storm. "Prairie Wind" is a short film by Martin Lisius that captures the drama of the big sky above the Great Plains of America. The film is the world's first-ever to be shot on 16K, which Lisius accomplished using a custom designed camera system and technique.
