Darwin, California: Life in a Lawless Town
This documentary visits Darwin, a tiny, isolated community of around thirty-five people at the end of a lonely road in Death Valley, California. Drawn together by hardship and a desire to escape the wider world, its residents must learn to coexist in a place with no law and few rules. The film paints an intimate portrait of life on the far margins of society. Quiet and revealing, it lingers long after it ends. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
