The Latest News consists of 50 stories from the New York Times published between 1992 and 2024, each condensed to roughly 5 to 7 sentences. These stories form the text of the film's voiceover. Each sentence has one corresponding shot and sound clip. And each 5 to 7 sentence story is separated by a single shot accompanied by no narration. The result is a brief history of contemporary Utah, a tour of Utah's varied landscapes, a history of the journalistic style of the New York Times, a reinterpretation of Benning's work, and a reflection on the current prospects of avant-garde cinema. Shot in 4k and 8k video, with digital stereo sound, the film is visually stunning and sonically rich.

This film sheds light on the fascinating and often neglected topic of the Hijra community in India, which has been a part of the subcontinent for over 4,000 years. Despite being revered and celebrated in religious and spiritual ceremonies, this community continues to face abuse, discrimination, and violence. Our film seeks to explore the dimension of evil that resides within our minds and how it reflects onto the perceptions of the Hijra community. For us, this film is very special, as it is a product of our personal experiences and the desire to showcase the struggle and bliss of the third gender. We aim to tell a story that is engaging, sensitive, and respectful. Our team is excited to bring this project to life, and we hope that it will contribute to a greater understanding and appreciation of the Hijra community.
