This desert epic owes a lot to films like "The Sheik," and "Lawrence of Arabia," both in terms of atmosphere and setting. There's even a bit of "Aladdin" thrown in for good measure, but the genie is nothing like Robin Williams, trust me. The cast has been chosen with a careful eye, and it includes many studs who resemble Arabians, in particular Arpad Miklos, Miguel Leonn, Iván Andros and Antonio Montez. Each scene opens with a grainy texture that suggests old footage, but as soon as the sex starts, the scene turns crystal clear. Videography, by Charles Stevens, is stunning whether the scene takes place indoors or outdoors.

Raoul Duke and his attorney Dr. Gonzo drive a red convertible across the Mojave desert to Las Vegas with a suitcase full of drugs to cover a motorcycle race. As their consumption of drugs increases at an alarming rate, the stoned duo trash their hotel room and fear legal repercussions. Duke begins to drive back to L.A., but after an odd run-in with a cop, he returns to Sin City and continues his wild drug binge.

This complex portrait of modern-day life on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation explores the bond between a brother and his younger sister, who find themselves on separate paths to rediscovering the meaning of home.
