167 - Nomadland

Join us as we get in our vans, poo in a bucket, and reject the American dream, all while discussing the incredible latest from Chloe Zhao ‘Nomadland’.

Nomadland is a 2020 American independent contemporary western drama film directed, written, edited and co-produced by Chloé Zhao. It is based on the 2017 non-fiction book Nomadland: Surviving America in the Twenty-First Century by Jessica Bruder, and stars Frances McDormand (who also produced the film) as a woman who leaves her small town to travel around the American West. It also features David Strathairn, as well as real-life nomads Linda May, Charlene Swankie, and Bob Wells as fictionalized versions of themselves.
