Saturday 28th saw the preview screening of Alma Har’el’s debut documentary Bombay Beach at London’s Wilton Music Hall. The film has already scooped best documentary award at the 2011 Tribeca Film Festival and I was lucky enough to watch the screening last weekend at the world’s oldest surviving music hall. This venue really is something special with all it’s original features and that very in vogue look of uniformly decrepit walls; stripped paint; and exposed, crumbling brick work.

The film tells the story of the residents of Bombay Beach, a deserted town of only 360 situated on the shores of Salton Sea, in the middle of the Colorado desert. Formerly a playground for the rich and famous in the 1950’s, the beaches of one of the world’s largest inland seas are now covered in dead fish as the waters become ever more toxic due to years of agricultural run off and increasing salinity levels.

Har’el follows the lives of three central male characters as they respectively aim to exist, fit in and escape from this town of misfits. It is a touching and intimate portrayal of the three different stages of American manhood.

Bombay Beach is a place of little opportunity but all the residents are remarkably rich in character, dignified and endearing. So much so that at times you wonder whether the characters haven’t been cast.

There’s a dreamlike, wistful quality to the film supported by the soundtrack of Bob Dylan and Beirut. Har’el’s music video background shows through too with choreographed dance scenes and artistic flourishes that respectfully punctuate the story.

The result is a moving and madly inventive documentary experience -  an evocative, symbolic portrait of rural America and its inhabitants.

Bombay Beach is out in cinemas on Feburay 3rd  and will be shown as part of Picturehouse cinemas Doc Days on February 7th nationwide – find your nearest screening and book a ticket on the Bombay Beach website. You can also follow the film on Twitter or Facebook.
