  • Film Director: Nick Jordan.
Headlands Lookout is an experimental documentary by collaborative artists Jacob Cartwright and Nick Jordan, centred on the Marin Headlands: a dramatic stretch of Pacific coastline at the entrance to San Francisco Bay. Featuring abandoned gun encampments and missile sites, Beat poetry, fog-shrouded hills, ancient redwood forests and Zen philosophy, the film traverses the area’s cultural and natural landscape, exploring and documenting a ‘wild’ landscape mediated by human activity.
