USA, 1998, 90 min
James Benning’s Four Corners is a landmark work of American experimental cinema, a contemplative study of landscape, history, and the act of looking. Filmed across the meeting point of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah, it maps the overlapping territories of culture, geography, and memory that define the American West.

The film weaves together long, precise takes of the desert with the voices of Native, Hispanic, Black, and Anglo storytellers, each recounting histories often overlooked or erased. What emerges is a layered portrait of a place both vast and intimate, charged with the presence of those who have lived and labored upon it.

Benning transforms the Four Corners region into a site of meditation, where silence holds the weight of time and every frame becomes an act of attention. Four Corners stands as a powerful reflection on belonging, representation, and the enduring traces of America’s contested past.
