About Kicking Up Dust
A group of polygamist women as separatist lesbians explore the mystical space between land, loving, and line dancing. A part of Ellsworth's ongoing efforts of putting the queer in pioneer, Ellsworth looks to her own Mormon cultural history and upbringing in Utah to investigate the underpinnings of Utopian ideals and religion by re-imagining a community of women creating their own grid and having their own visionary and revelatory powers outside a patriarchal construct. She draws parallels between the communities established by her ancestors and contemporary discourse around queer relationships and family. Through her re-appropriation of images of women in pastel prairie dresses, Ellsworth explores intimacy, resilience, and new possibilities for defining, building, and sustaining community.
Directed by Angela Ellsworth, Kicking Up Dust leans on a strong ensemble — Julie Hampton, Keylor Leigh, Liz Lohr — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2015.
