Dirt is a four-minute film by independent filmmaker Chel White. A man’s strange obsession with dirt starts as a childhood game, but eventually manifests itself on a most surreal level. The dark humor, expressionistic images create an allegory for individuality and self-sufficiency, in this off-beat ecological parable. The short narrative is taken from a radio program written and read by Joe Frank, and stars Evan Knapp, with cinematography by Mark Eifert.
The American independent film producer Christine Vachon describes the film as “A post-modern Invasion of the Body Snatchers". The Stockholm Film Festival calls it, "A very original and inspired work. Sharp and to the point."
