Echo puncture (2.0)

A documentary with live cinema elements – a stranger than fiction performance about Trump's America.

Artist Maria Lloyd begins to receive emails meant for another Maria Lloyd. A MAGA-Maria, with invitations to National Rifle Association dinners, gun shows and meet-and-greet events. Reminders of far-right Christian conferences, hotel bookings and meetings led by Trump Junior.

Maria takes Maria on a journey and she gets lost in the America we thought we knew. Welcome to a world of pink guns, soap operas and car chases. From Florida to Mississippi, a road trip through the Deep South in search of the other Maria.
