Out of nowhere, a gaunt man in a dark suit and a red baseball cap appears in the burning heat of the desert between the US and Mexico. He drinks the last sip from his water bottle, then he moves on, doggedly, into the inhospitable area that the locals call "The Devil’s Playground". Travis might seem to be mute and amnesiac, but he’s driven by the desire to reconnect with his family. Palme d'Or Cannes 1984. In 2024, the film was presented at Locarno fully restored in a 4k version.
