About the Show

A daily chronicle of creativity in film, TV, music, arts, and entertainment, produced by Southern California Public Radio and broadcast from November 2014 – March 2020. Host John Horn leads the conversation, accompanied by the nation's most plugged-in cultural journalists.

Oscar-winning director Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu, the filmmaker behind "The Revenant" and "Birdman," has created an interactive experience that puts the viewer literally in the footsteps of border-crossing immigrants.

The film — “Carne y Arena” (Flesh and Sand) — debuted at the Cannes Film Festival and is currently being presented at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.  

Steven Cuevas of KQED’s The California Report took the virtual reality journey. Read more and listen to his story here.
