From Inside of Here screens at the Fall 2023 New Jersey Film Festival on Sunday, September 24!

Growing up in the midwest, activities like deer hunting and cattle ranching were part of everyday life for Bill Basquin, director of From Inside of Here. What would be the Wild West to any coastal inhabitant is simply the backyard for those who grow up in the midwest. For Bill Basquin, his interest and access to nature shaped his sense of aesthetics and childhood play, where ponds and cornfields became his playground and creative landscape. Ever since then he has gravitated towards nature, and the collaboration between space and imagination that it provides. Basquin’s experience of the “wilderness” and “unknown” while in the midwest became a motif in the filmography of his career, but his latest non-fiction feature From Inside of Here provides an account of these regions that is unique to any other.
