We are all alone

The lonely traveler, in the desert, didn’t know if he was talking to herself or saying to her followers: "I am so alone." The photographer who followed all the way didn’t know if there was a little ambiguity due to the following. Romance, I don’t know if it’s talking to myself or saying to the lone walker he follows in the desert: "We all are." Yes, we all are. Even if we walk through the bustling crowd, we will still feel lonely.

The music of the film is very good. Beautiful, but the Australian desert landscape could have been more beautiful.

Tracks quotes

  • Robyn: In the desert time is elusive. There were days when minutes dragged on for years, and the hours stretched for eons. It felt as if I was perfectly stationary, walking in place, pushing the world around under my feet. But time moves in one direction, always forward. So I decided to keep on walking no matter what.

  • [last lines]

    Robyn: I'd pared my possessions down to almost nothing. I had a filthy old sarong for hot weather, and a jumper and woolly socks for cold weather. I had something to sleep on, and something to eat and drink out of. And that was all I needed. Like any journey, it's not what you carry, but what you leave behind.
