Off the Road

The Baja 1000, the biggest off-road motorsport race in the world, crosses Mexico's largest desert region.

When he's not drinking, bailing floodwater or making techno beats, he's playing a video game that eerily mirrors his post-apocalyptic surroundings—hovering UFO included. Shown in complete isolation, he is the hero, the shooter and the zombie of his own moody game.
