Erin Wilkerson

A family trip across the American West becomes an essay film about nuclear threats past and present. The apocalypse is omnipresent, and the journey shows that destruction has long since become inscribed into the landscape and history of the country.

A documentary about Erin Wilkerson's family history in Los Angeles. It seeks to honor the indigenous people who have been treated as migrants in their own land since Spanish colonization. With their generosity, friendship, and hard work, they are the backbone of the city. Seeing them persecuted in the streets and living so far away feels like a failure.

The film explores the archive to tell the story of how Burnam Burnam, in 1988, reclaimed the White Cliffs of Dover for the Wurundjeri people. Along with a promise not to repeat the violence suffered by him and his ancestors.

The Second Burial tells of the two marked graves of the pirate Christopher Columbus, and generations of indigenous peoples, with none. An essay for the children who never left the Residential Schools, told via the colonial plunder in Barcelona and the civil war that followed, alongside Wilkerson's personal family heirlooms, brought from Europe to the former Mexican territory of California, one hundred years ago. Colonial violence against the other, also manifests against its own. And if left unchecked, it has the potential to destroy us all.
