"Land with No Rider" by Professor Tamar Lando premieres in New York City at the Margaret Mead Film Festival, American Museum of Natural History

Once one of the ranching and mining heartlands of the United States, New Mexico no longer has the workforce nor environmental conditions to support its dwindling number of cattle ranchers. Those who remain recognize ranching’s importance, seeking to continue tending the land in the face of encroaching subdevelopment. Land With No Rider captures the transcendent New Mexican skies, illustrating with pastoral breadth why these ranchers remain. 

The screening will be followed by a talkback with the director Tamar Lando, moderated by filmmaker and cinematographer Kirsten Johnson.
