REEL SOUTH

There Was Nobody Here We Knew

Special | 9m 21s

In early quarantine, a Pakistani couple in northern Virginia bicker and ruminate about extraterrestrial and terrestrial border-crossings of multiple kinds, after spotting what they believe is a UFO outside their home. 'There Was Nobody Here We Knew' is as much about finding answers as it is about looking inward to understand how we arrived at where we are and where we are headed.
